    • 1 sweet potatoes
    • peeler

    • knife

  • Step 2/3

    Add sweet potatoes to a large pot and cover with water. Add the butter. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat for approx. 20 – 30 min. (time depends on size of chunks). They are done when you can easily stick a fork through them. Don't overcook. Drain about three quarters of the water from your pot and return to stove.

  • Step 3/3

    Add peanut butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and brown sugar to pot. Stir until mixed well. Turn heat down to low. If it seems a bit runny, add some more peanut butter to help thicken it (you may also want to add a little more maple syrup to taste). Add mini marshmallows to cover top of the pot and turn off heat after a few minutes. Once marshmallows have melted a bit, they are ready to serve. Alternatively, transfer sweet potatoes to a baking tray, top with mini marshmallows, and transfer to a preheated oven at 200°C/400°F, and bake for approx. 10 min., or until marshmallows are browned. Enjoy!
