How To Make sweet potatoes with marshmallows

  • 1
    if using canned yams then put in pan and heat up or put in microwave and heat up. They are already soft and don't need much cooking. If using fresh potatoes then buy yams and cut up and cook as if you were cooking white potatoes for mashed potatoes
  • 2
    add cooked hot potatoes to big mixing bowl and add all the ingredients and slightly whip with mixer. Do not over mix. They should have some lumps and not be really creamy. Just make sure no really big chunks are left.
  • 3
    poor into pan for oven or air fryer. Glass, metal, tin, your choice. I use glass.
  • 4
    add lots of marshmallows onto the top of the potatoes
  • 5
    cook in oven at 350 for approx 25-30 minutes until the marshmallows are golden brown and toasted. cook in air fryer at 350 for 8-10 minutes until the marshmallows are golden brown and toasted
