Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups mashed cooked sweet potatoes (about 3 large potatoes)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 4 tablespoons melted butter
- 1/3 cup dark brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
- 12 Old El Paso Mini Soft Tortilla Taco Boats (one 5.1oz package)
- 1-2 cups mini marshmallows
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° F. In a large mixing bowl, combine mashed sweet potatoes, cinnamon, butter, brown sugar, and maple syrup.
- Place Old El Paso Mini Soft Tortilla Taco Boats on a baking sheet.
- Spread sweet potato mixture evenly into each taco boat.
- Bake for 12 minutes. Carefully add mini marshmallows and bake for 2 more minutes or until marshmallows are puffy.
- Turn on broiler for 1-2 minutes to brown if desired (watch carefully!!!).
Notes
- To fill the mini boats easily, place sweet potato filling in a large zip-top bag. Snip off corner and pipe filling into mini boats. Press down with a spoon gently to get filling to edges.
- If you’re a fan of ginger, it would be a great addition to these. I’d recommend adding ¼ to ½ teaspoon ground ginger.
