Ingredients
- 2 1/2 to 3 pounds sweet potatoes (about 3 large sweet potatoes), peeled and cubed into 1/2-inch pieces
- 4 Tbsp. unsalted butter, plus more to grease the dish
- 1/2 cup Barney Butter Bare Smooth Almond Butter
- 1/2 cup heavy cream or half and half
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- 1 1/2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice mix
- 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract (optional)
- 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F; lightly grease a 2.5-quart casserole dish with butter.
- Add the sweet potatoes to a medium pot and cover with cold water by 2 inches. Cover the pot, bring up to a boil, and then turn the heat down and cook the potatoes with the lid ajar until they’re soft and easily mashable, about 5 to 7 minutes. Drain.
- Mash or whip the potatoes (depending on your preference for lumps), and then mix in the butter, almond butter, cream, egg, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla (if using), and salt.
- Spread the potatoes out in the prepared dish and top with the marshmallows.
- Bake until the potatoes are hot throughout and the marshmallows start to melt and turn light golden brown, about 20 to 25 minutes. Serve warm.
