Tips for Making Pineapple Topped Sweet Potatoes

  • Pierce the sweet potatoes with a fork several times before baking. This will help them cook faster and more evenly.
  • Bake the sweet potatoes until they are tender when pierced with a fork. This usually takes about 45 minutes to an hour.
  • Let the sweet potatoes cool slightly before topping them with pineapple and marshmallows.
  • Use fresh pineapple for the best flavor. You can also use canned pineapple, but be sure to drain it well.
  • If you don't have marshmallows, you can use another topping, such as chopped nuts or crumbled bacon.
