This will definitely be part of our Thanksgiving menu this year. Grandma knew how to make sweet potatoes irresistible!
1/2 cup brown sugar (divided)
2 Tbsp orange juice
2 tsp Vanilla
1 1/2 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
3 lbs sweet potatoes (peeled and cut into 1" chunks)
4 Tbsp butter
1/4 cup flour
2 cups miniature marshmallows
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Combine 1/4 cup brown sugar, orange juice, vanilla and 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice in a large bowl. Add the sweet potatoes and toss to coat. Spoon into a 13 x 9" baking dish. Dot with 2 Tbsp of butter. Cover and bake for 45 minutes or until potatoes are slightly tender.
Mix flour, 1/4 cup brown sugar and 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice in a medium bowl. Cut in remaining 2 Tbsp butter with fork until crumbly. Stir in marshmallows.
Remove casserole from oven and stir gently to coat potatoes in syrup; top with marshmallow-crumb topping. Bake, uncovered for 7 - 10 more minutes or until potatoes are tender and topping is golden brown.
Give this a try, and it will become a family favorite!

My Grandma passed away at the age of 94. She was a wonderful cook and I was lucky enough to inherit her recipes. Many date back to the 1940s and 50s. Grandma prepared them in a charming country kitchen with no running water and most of her produce came from her garden, not from the grocery store. These are made-from-scratch recipes. I wish I had spent more time with her in the kitchen and . . . I wish I had spent more time with her for so many other reasons.
