Wonderful! Just a little tweaking and it came out great! I found that a 9x13 pan was a little too big maybe a 9x9 would do better? Also I added a full cup of pineapple along with some cinnamon. Not too sweet not too tangy. Thanks for sharing this recipe!
this is fantastic!! i would give it 10 stars if i could as would EVERYONE at thanksgiving dinner where i brought this as my contribution. as usual i changed something--topping made of cup brown sugar cup flour 1/3 cup melted margarine cup chopped pecans 6 slices canned pineapple rings -Beautiful dish. use sweet potatoes not yams
Wow was this good (and easy)! To save time I peeled and cubed the sweet potatoes boiled them for 8 minutes then drained. I also added 1 cup pineapple instead of 1/2 cup. I too used a 9x9" baking dish as others suggested (perfect size!). My recipe was ready after 30 minutes of baking. Thanks so much for the recipe!
I made this for my family at Thanksgiving...they all raved! So much better than any I've had before. I even used canned yams and they were still yummy!
I always try a new sweet potato recipe every Thanksgiving until...my husband no longer lets me make any other recipe but this one! It's light not-so-sweet flavor is the perfect compliment to Thanksgiving dinner!
I was slightly hesitant about this wondering how the pairing of pineapple and sweet potato would taste but thought it turned out excellent! I was tired of seeing recipes for sweet potato casseroles that really packed the calories with sugar syrup marshmallows etc. Sweet potatoes are naturally sweet and I wanted something that would bring out that flavor while staying healthy since this is one of the best veggies for you! This recipe did it for me. I can't wait to make for my family on Thanksgiving! This could even pass as a dessert!
I made this for Christmas dinner and it was a huge hit! I added some chopped peacons for a garnish.
The addition of maraschino cherries adds something special to this wonderful dish! Perfect for holiday dinners but my husband and I cheat and eat it throughout the year... Shh! Thanks Delora!
At our place everyone just takes a tiny spoonful of sweet potatoes (but we can't pass them up just the same!) so I don't want to spend too much time and energy on them. I used a 40oz can of sweet potatoes which seemed more like 2 potatoes worth and cut the other ingredients accordingly. I'd probably do that again because it was so quick and easy to mash them and mix this up. I'd use a little less sugar next time since the pineapple adds some sweetness. I think it needs a little something on top for presentation sake too - maybe cut the sugar in the potatoes and just add a crumb topping. Will try these again.
This was easy to make and my family did eat it but personally I think the sweet potatoes with the brown sugar sauce and marshmallows on top is way way better. So if you like that a lot you might be a little disappointed with this. I thought this needed a little more of something not sure what.
