Sweet Potato Pie with Marshmallows
2 deep dish pie crusts
4-6 medium size sweet potatoes
1 1/2 sticks of butter
2 pinches of salt
2 pinches of baking soda
2 1/2 - 3 cups of sugar * |
1 1/2 teaspoons of vanilla flavor
1 teaspoon of lemon juice
1 tablespoon of nutmeg
1 teaspoon of cinnamon
1 bag of miniature marshmallows |
*Please note that the cups of sugar depends on how sweet
you want your pies.
You might even want to add a little more sugar or a little
less.
Heat oven to 350° F.
Peel potatoes and slice. Place potatoes in a pot of water.
Water should cover potatoes. Boil potatoes until they are tender when you
stick them with a fork they should fall apart.
Drain potatoes and rinse well. Mash the potatoes and
add butter, sugar, salt, baking soda, vanilla flavor, lemon juice, nutmeg,
and cinnamon. Mix all the ingredients very well (mixture should be very,
very creamy).
Pour mixture into the pie shells. Bake the pies for about
an hour or until the pie is firm. The pie will slightly brown.
Take the pies out of the oven and cover the entire pies
with marshmallows. Put back in the oven and bake for about another 10-15
minutes or until the marshmallows brown a little.
Let cool.
