Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Place sweet potatoes into a large pot and cover with water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes; drain. Transfer drained sweet potatoes to a baking sheet.

Step 3

Bake sweet potatoes in the preheated oven until dried, 3 to 4 minutes; transfer to a mixing bowl.

Step 4

Mash sweet potatoes with a potato masher until no large lumps remain; add sugar, allspice, and cinnamon. Continue mashing potatoes until evenly seasoned; spoon into a casserole dish. Spread miniature marshmallows in an even layer over the sweet potato mixture.

Step 5

Bake in oven until marshmallows just begin to brown, 10 to 15 minutes.

Step 6

Switch oven to broil; cook under broiler for 1 minute.
