Sweet Potato Streusel

12 large sweet potatoes

¾ cup unsalted butter, room temperature

¾ cup light brown sugar

¾ cup flour

¼ tsp. cinnamon

¼ tsp. salt

1 cup toasted pecan pieces

1 cup mini marshmallows.

Directions:  Pre heat the oven to 400 degrees.  Scrub sweet potatoes, prick with fork, 

place on baking sheet, and bake for about 45 minutes, or until a knife insertedin the 

center goes in easily.

In a large bowl, mix the butter, brown sugar, and flour together until crumbly.  Add 

the cinnamon, salt, pecans, and marshmallows; fold the streusel topping together to 

combine.

Slice the sweet potatoes lengthwise and push the ends towards the middle, so it 

opens up.  Stuff the sweet potatoes generously with the streusel topping and return to 

the oven.  Bake for another 20 minutes, or until the topping is bubbly and brown.

Comment:  This is a large batch…often cut in half.

As a casserole alternative, Remove the baked sweet potato from skins and place into 

a greased casserole dish.  Sprinkle streusel over the top.  Bake for 20 minutes or 

until the topping is bubbly and brown.
