Not So Sweet Sweet Potato Casserole Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Fill a large, microwave-safe dish with 1/2 inch of water. Place squash into the dish and cover. Microwave for about 8 minutes and then drain (the squash should be tender enough to mash, but not overcooked).
• With a potato masher, food processor, or fork, mash the squash thoroughly, but do not puree (the squash should be pulpy). Add soy milk, syrup, sweetener, salt, egg substitute, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Mix the ingredients thoroughly, but do not over-stir.
• Transfer to an 8-inch by 10-inch baking pan sprayed with nonstick spray. Bake in the oven until mostly firm, 45 to 50 minutes.
• Top with mini marshmallows. Return to the oven until the marshmallows begin to brown, about 5 minutes. Allow to cool before serving!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Bake potatoes whole, in their skins on a foil lined jelly roll pan until they are soft when pierced with a fork (about 1-1 1/4 hours, depending on the actual size of your potatoes).
• Remove from oven and let cool until you can handle them, then peel off the skins.
• Mash the potatoes along with butter, cider, salt and pepper, until smooth enough to your liking.
• Grease an oval baking dish (about 2-2 1/2 quart size) and spoon the mashed potatoes into the dish.
• Sprinkle with the shredded cheese and bake at 375°F for about 30 minutes, uncovered, or until heated through and the cheese is melted.
• Sprinkle parsley over the top and serve.
• MAKE AHEAD TIP: You can make the mashed potatoes in advance and freeze them up to 1 month.
• When ready to serve them, thaw completely, place into the baking dish as described above, top with cheese, and bake at 350°F for about 40 minutes, then sprinkle with parsley before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F.
• Peel sweet potatoes and chop into one inch cubes.
• Melt butter and honey together in the microwave or on the stovetop.
• Stir spices, salt and lemon juice into butter mixture.
• Place sweet potatoes in a casserole dish.
• Pour butter mixture over sweet potatoes and stir to coat well.
• Bake for about 1 hour, until sweet potatoes are soft. Stirring occasionally.
• Once sweet potatoes are done, sprinkle almonds over the top before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Put the sweet potatoes on a sheet tray and roast for 35 to 40 minutes. The sweet potatoes might still be a little hard in the center- no problem!
• While the sweet potatoes are baking make the topping. In a food processor, combine the oatmeal, brown sugar, olive oil, butter, and walnuts and pulse until mixture comes together.
• When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel them and cut them into 1-inch chunks. Discard the skins. Put the potatoes into a large dish and add the remaining ingredients. Mash together with a potato masher until well combined.
• Transfer the mixture to a 2-quart casserole dish. Crumble the topping mixture over the potatoes. Bake until the mixture hot all the way through and the topping is brown and crispy, about 30 minutes.
• That's a hot sweet potato!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a medium baking dish.
• Boil the sweet potatoes in a large saucepan approximately 10 minutes, or until tender.
• In a large bowl, mix together the sweet potatoes, brown sugar, milk, butter and flour. Transfer the mixture to the baking dish. Sprinkle with pecans and coconut.
• Bake 30 minutes in the preheated oven.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
• Add the chopped sweet potatoes and 1 tablespoon of salt to a large pot of cold water. Bring to a boil and cook for 15 minutes, or until very tender. Drain and let cool slightly.
• Transfer the sweet potatoes to a large bowl. Add the butter, remaining tablespoon of salt, the milk, and eggs. Mix with an electric hand mixer until the potatoes are mashed and everything is well incorporated.
• Transfer half of the sweet potatoes to another large bowl.
• Make the sweet base: To a bowl, add the brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla. Mix well to combine.
• Make the savory base: To the other bowl, add the green onions, garlic, and pepper. Mix well to combine.
• Spread the sweet base in one side of a 9x13-inch (23x33-cm) baking dish. Press the uncooked sweet potato slices against the exposed side of the sweet base as a divider, then spread the savory base in the other side of the pan.
• Make the sweet topping: In a small bowl, combine the butter, brown sugar, flour, and pecans, and mix until crumbly. Sprinkle over the sweet base.
• Make the savory topping: In another small bowl, combine bread crumbs, salt, pepper, bacon bits, and oil, and stir to combine. Sprinkle the crumbs over the savory base.
• Bake the sweet potato casserole for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
• Remove the casserole from oven and top the sweet side with the halved marshmallows, cut-side down.
• Return to the oven and broil on high for 1-2 minutes, or until the marshmallows are golden brown and toasted.
• Remove the casserole from the oven and sprinkle the savory side with green onions.
• Serve warm.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 2 1/2-quart baking dish with butter.
• Place sweet potato cubes into a large pot, cover with water, and add a large pinch of salt. Bring to a boil and cook until a knife is easily inserted into a sweet potato cube, about 10 minutes. Drain well. Return to the pot and mash 2 tablespoons butter into sweet potatoes.
• Whisk eggs, maple syrup, buttermilk, milk, vanilla extract, cayenne pepper, allspice, and 1/2 teaspoon salt together in a large bowl until smooth. Gradually mash sweet potatoes into egg mixture, starting with 2 tablespoons of sweet potato mixture, until all sweet potatoes are incorporated. Transfer sweet potatoes into prepared baking dish.
• Mix pistachios, brown sugar, flour, and 1/4 cup melted butter together until completely mixed. Crumble topping evenly over top of sweet potatoes. Use the back of a fork to gently press pistachio mixture down onto sweet potatoes.
• Bake in the preheated oven until topping is browned and casserole is set, 25 to 30 minutes. If desired, place under oven's broiler for 5 minutes to give topping a little more brown color. Let rest to cool slightly before serving, about 10 minutes.
