I LOVE sweet potato pie. Obviously, though, it doesn't make the most healthy side dish. I have tried my hand at eating a baked sweet potato plain...blah. I tried baking it, cutting it open and putting butter, cinnamon, marshmallow, etc. This makes it yummy, but only on the cut edges. When you get to the middle, it is plain again. I had this problem....until.....Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes were born. So yummy! Its like a healthy sweet potato pie that you can eat as a pretty healthy side dish.
Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes
2 medium sweet potatoes
2 tsp butter/margarine- I used honey butter
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2-4 Tbsp milk
Salt to taste
Mini marshmallows
1. Bake sweet potatoes until tender (I made mine in the microwave)
2. Cut sweet potato in half and scoop out flesh. Be sure to leave skin intact and reserve. Put flesh into a bowl and mash.
3. Add butter, cinnamon, salt and milk (use enough milk so it is the consistency of moist mashed potatoes). Put mixture back into skin.
4. Top with mini marshmallows.
5. Place back in oven and bake until warmed through and the marshmallows are toasty.
