Sweet taters with a new look. I took a Paula Dean recipe and combined it with Aunt Ruby's tater balls... this is what I came up with. Ingredients:
4 -5 large sweet potatoes |
1/2 cup brown sugar (packed) |
3 tablespoons orange juice |
2 teaspoons orange zest |
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg |
1/2 cup shredded coconut (sweetened) |
1 cup corn flakes (crushed) |
1/8 cup sugar |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
8 -10 large marshmallows (one per ball) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350. 2. bake potatoes until tender, peel and mash, stir in brown sugar, orange juice,nutmeg & zest. 3. Toss coconut, sugar, cinnamon and cornflakes in a separate bowl. 4. Form a 3-4 ball of potato mixture , roll in coconut/cornflake mix and press marshmallow on top. 5. Bake for 15-20 minutes. |
