Mom’s Rad Sweet Potato Casserole
Gwen Cates
I'm thankful my mom got rid of the marshmallow-topped sweet potato recipe and created a healthier Thanksgiving family favorite!
Prep Time 30 minutes mins
Cook Time 25 minutes mins
- 6 large sweet potatoes or yams
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ tsp ground cloves
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tangerine divided into segments
- ½ cup coconut milk
Topping:
- 1 cup dried shredded coconut
- 2 tbsp grass-fed butter or coconut oil
- 3 tbsp maple syrup
Boil sweet potatoes in a large pot of water. Drain and slide skins off of potatoes. Mash in a large bowl, add the rest of the ingredients and mix well. Place in coconut oil-greased casserole dish. Spread topping over sweet potato mixture.
Bake at 375 degrees for about 25 minutes or until warm and the topping is lightly toasted.
