sweet potato souffle

I never thought I liked sweet potatoes. I was wrong!

Not only are they packed with healthy stuff (ie: beta carotene,

vitamin A, vitamin C and some other great stuff) but they're

super yummy too!! This is a dish that I like to make for

Thanksgiving but I needed some last night so we put

tradition aside and delved into the yummy goodness that is

"Sweet potato souffle." Want some too?

preheat your oven to 350

Combine 4-5 medium sized sweet potatoes (boiled and mushy),

1/2 cup sugar, 2 eggs, 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream, 1/2 tsp salt,

and 1 tsp cinnamon in a blender. Blend it up until it's super creamy.

Pour that lovely stuff into a 2 quart baking dish and set it aside.

In a mixing bowl combine: 1/3 cup melted butter, 2/3 cup brown

sugar, 1 cup toasted pecans (I used almonds this time),

1 cup flaked coconut, and 1/3 cup flour. Mix it all up with a fork

until it's well incorporated.

Crumble the good stuff on top of the sweet potato puree and

throw it in the oven (not literally...that would be a mess) for

30-35 minutes. You can serve it warm or cold.

and if you're anything like me, you'll need to make sure it's

not poisoned.

Nope...it's all good!
