Make and share this Upside-Down Pineapple Sweet Potatoes recipe from Food.com.

Provided by FLKeysJen

Categories     Yam/Sweet Potato

Time 2h20m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 1/2 lbs sweet potatoes (about 3 large)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter (1/2 stick)
1/2 cup lightly packed brown sugar
7 slices canned pineapple rings, drained and dried
2 large eggs, beaten
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Coat a 9" round cake pan with cooking spray and set aside.
  • Rub the sweet potatoes with a few drops of oil or a touch of cooking spray. Place the potatoes on the oven rack and bake until they are soft when squeezed, 40-60 minutes. Remove the sweet potatoes and set aside until cool enough to handle.
  • Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter with the brown sugar. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan, tilting to coat the bottom evenly. Arrange six pineapple slices in a ring around the edge and one in the center of the pan.
  • Peel the potatoes and place the flesh in a mixing bowl. Mash roughly with a fork. Add the eggs, cinnamon, baking powder, salt and 5-6 grinds pepper, and whisk until well-blended. Spoon the mixture into the baking pan, spreading it evenly over the pineapple and smoothing the top. Tap the pan sharply on the countertop three or four times to knock out air bubbles.
  • Bake until the top looks dry and feels springy to the touch, 40 minutes. A knife inserted in the center should come out clean. Cool in the pan on a rack for 10 minutes. Run a knife around the side of the pan. Insert a serving plate over the pan and, holding the pan and the plate firmly with oven mitts, flip them so the potatoes drop on to the plate, pineapple side up. Lift off the pan. Serve warm.

MOM'S THANKSGIVING SWEET POTATO-PINEAPPLE BALLS



Mom's Thanksgiving Sweet Potato-Pineapple Balls image

These are made with canned yams, crushed pineapple and are covered with corn flakes. My Mom got this recipe in the early 1960's and made it every Thanksgiving. The corn flakes add texture and so the balls resemble little porcupines! Note: my husband likes marshmallows with yams so I have since made some with marshmallows inside the balls for those who like it sweet! This year I made half the balls with 3 mini marshmallows that I put put on top in a small indentation. DH's have sugar-free marshmallows which I found on-line (La Nouba brand)! You can also put the yam/pineapple mixture in a ramekin without the cornflakes and just add marshmallows too.

MY GRANDMA'S CANDIED YAMS WITH PINEAPPLE



My Grandma's Candied Yams with Pineapple image

Grandma was always in charge of Thanksgiving dinner in my family. This is my variation on her candied yams (sweet potatoes), and they are the best!

Provided by Food Network

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h35m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch-thick rounds
8 tablespoons (1 stick) salted butter
2 cups granulated sugar
One 20-ounce can crushed pineapple
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cloves
Pinch kosher salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Place the sweet potatoes in a 2-quart baking dish. Set aside.
  • In a medium pot, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Add the sugar and stir until smooth. Drain the pineapple in a strainer, reserving the juice. Stir in about half the pineapple and half the pineapple juice; reserve the rest of the pineapple and juice for another use. Stir in the cinnamon, cloves and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil, remove from the heat and add the vanilla extract. Pour the mixture directly over the sweet potatoes.
  • Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake until the sweet potatoes are just tender, about 45 minutes. Remove the foil and continue to bake until the sweet potatoes are caramelized, 20 to 25 minutes more.
  • Plate and serve immediately. Pour extra sauce from the bottom of the baking dish on top.

Tips:

  • Choose firm and ripe sweet potatoes for the best flavor and texture.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the sweet potatoes into even slices so they cook evenly.
  • Soak the sweet potato slices in cold water for 10 minutes before cooking to help them retain their shape.
  • Cook the sweet potato slices until they are tender but still slightly firm, about 5 minutes per side.
  • Use canned pineapple rings for convenience, or you can use fresh pineapple if you prefer.
  • Drain the pineapple rings well before using to prevent the casserole from becoming too watery.
  • Add a sprinkle of brown sugar or maple syrup to the casserole for a sweeter flavor.
  • Top the casserole with a mixture of melted butter and chopped pecans for a crunchy topping.

Conclusion:

Sweet potatoes on pineapple rings is a classic Southern dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The sweet potatoes are tender and flavorful, the pineapple adds a touch of sweetness and acidity, and the pecan topping adds a crunchy texture. This dish is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion.
