Ingredients:

• 3-4 medium sweet potatoes
• 2 ripe bananas, cut into chunks
• 2/3 cup butter, cut up
• 1/4 tsp cinnamon
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1/3 cup milk
• 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
• 4-5 Tbsp. applesauce
• Mini-marshmallows (optional)

Method

Peel sweet potatoes, cut and cook as you would for mashed potatoes. Drain, add the rest of ingredients to the sweet potatoes and mash together until blended. Put into lightly buttered casserole or baking dish. Bake at 350 degrees until hot; sprinkle with marshmallows, if desired, for the last 5 minutes.

Notes: If I have fruit juice such as strawberry/banana or sometimes orange juice, I will add a little bit for an extra "zing." I use my imagination with different juices. Sometimes I will use evaporated milk instead of regular milk. I often add raisins, if I have them!

Number of servings: 6-8
