I hope everyone has/had a nice Easter! We had our big Easter dinner on saturday and we ate lots of tasty food! Here is the dish that I contributed.
Also note my nicer photography. Hooray for using mom and dads camera.
This recipe mostly comes from Steve's sister, Jill, but I lost her recipe so I had to improvise a little. :)
Sweet Potato Marshmallow Balls
Ingredients ( I made a ton, so feel free to cut this recipe in half):
- 8 Sweet Potatoes
- 6tbsp Maple Syrup
- 4tbsp Butter
- Pinch of Cinnamon
- Pinch of Nutmeg
- Dash of Salt
- 2tbsp Orange Juice
- Cornflakes
- Marshmallows
Peel the skin off and smush up your taters.
At this point my mom and I were having a tater throwdown. Me with my sweet potatoes and her with her regular ones. Here's a pic of what she made!
YUM!
Add syrup, butter, orange juice, and spices. Mix it all up.
In a bowl crush up a bunch of cornflakes.
Grab a handful of potato mix and smush it into a ball. Roll in the cornflakes til coated and then place on a greased baking sheet.
Look how many I made (34)!!!!
Bake in the oven at 350 for about 5 minutes. Pull them out and smush a marshmallow onto each one. Place back in the oven and cook for another 20ish minutes or until marshmallows are browned to your liking.
Have a Happy Easter and Enjoy!

Hi there!
Beautiful kitchen you're working in there.
Dad used the leftover yam balls in a soup with the ham scraps and hambone. It was really good, but sparse.
