Candied Sweet Potatoes image

My late dearly beloved mother-in-law, Jeanne, passed this recipe to me early in my marriage, around 1971 or so. It's one of my favorite covered dish offerings, so I often double the recipe & put marshmallows on 1/2 of the sweet potatoes. (The photo at left shows this very dish.) These sweet potatoes are winners either way! ...

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb cooked sweet potatoes or 1 large can, drained
2/3 c brown sugar, firmly packed
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp ground cinnamon
2 Tbsp butter or margarine
some marshmallows, optional

Steps:

  • 1. Spray casserole dish with cooking spray & preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • 2. Arrange sweet potatoes in casserole dish. Sprinkle with brown sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Dot with butter pieces.
  • 3. Bake at 325 degrees F. for about 40-45 minutes, until sweet potatoes are heated through and syrup is bubbly.
  • 4. If desired, add marshmallows and return to the oven until marshmallows have melted and browned. Check after 4 minutes or so to gauge browning time.
  • 5. NOTE: If you double the recipe, use a 13 x 9" pan or baking dish.
  • 6. NOTE: If other foods are baking at 350 degrees F. & you want to bake this at the same time, cut the baking time (check after 25 minutes)for the sweet potatoes, then check the marshmallows after about 3 minutes.
