For the sweet potato casserole, you will need:

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Peel and chop the sweet potatoes and boil them until tender. Drain and mash the sweet potatoes in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Add sugar, melted butter, beaten eggs, vanilla extract, milk, and salt to the mashed sweet potatoes. Mix well with a mixing spoon or electric mixer until all ingredients are fully combined.

Notes

You can use canned sweet potatoes or yams instead of fresh sweet potatoes to save time. Make sure to drain them well before mashing. If you prefer a sweeter casserole, you can add 1/2 cup of brown sugar to the sweet potato mixture. If you want to make the dish ahead of time, you can prepare the sweet potato mixture and refrigerate it overnight. Add the marshmallow topping just before baking.
