STUFFED SWEET POTATOES – The Southern Lady Cooks

Stuffed Sweet Potatoes

If you sweet potatoes then you may love this old-fashioned recipe for Sweet Potato Pone. It’s a unique dish and delicious.

❤️WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE

These potates are so easy to make and a wonderful addition to any holiday menu. These are perfect for a small gathering and everyone will get their own potato stuffed with delicious brown sugar, cinnamon and marshmallows. Much easier than making up a sweet potato casserole and you can make the sweet potato earlier in the morning, set aside in a warmer and then add the toppings right before you eat.

🍴KEY INGREDIENTS

  • Sweet potatoes
  • Butter
  • Brown Sugar
  • Cinnamon
  • Mini Marshmallows

SWAPS

These potatoes are super versatile as you can add any topping you enjoy. You can add maple syrup, honey, extra butter and can leave out the marshmallows. We love these because they are so easy to make and really no clean up! Win win!

🍽️HOW TO MAKE

The hardest part of this easy recipe is getting out the ingredients!

SERVE THIS WITH

These stuffed sweet potatoes are great for Thanksgiving but we love them anytime of the year. Great way to enjoy sweet potatoes. If you do plan to serve them for a holiday gathering, they go great with this Broccoli Casserole and our Apple Pecan Pilaf.

❓FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Do you poke holes in your potatoes before cooking?

I do, but I know some people don’t, but these potatoes will leak, so I put a pan under them in the oven.

I am not a fan of marshmallows, can I leave them out?

Of course, you can leave out whatever you don’t like. Very versatile recipe.

STORING AND REHEATING

I just store these in an airtight container and reheat in the microwave.
