– Salt, to taste


Instructions

Creating Sweet Potato Bites with Marshmallows and Pecans is a breeze if you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures that the sweet potatoes cook evenly.

2. Prepare the Sweet Potatoes: Peel and cube the sweet potatoes into small, bite-sized pieces. This will help them cook faster and more evenly.

3. Boil the Sweet Potatoes: Place the cubed sweet potatoes in a pot of boiling salted water. Cook for about 10-15 minutes or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.

4. Mash the Sweet Potatoes: Drain the sweet potatoes and return them to the pot. Mash them until smooth, then add melted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Mix until well combined.

5. Assemble the Bites: Using a spoon or a small ice cream scoop, form small mounds of the sweet potato mixture on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

6. Top with Marshmallows and Pecans: Sprinkle mini marshmallows and chopped pecans generously on top of each sweet potato mound.

7. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the marshmallows are golden brown and slightly toasted.

These simple steps will help you create the perfect Sweet Potato Bites with Marshmallows and Pecans that are sure to be a crowd-pleaser!
