Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 3 pounds sweet potatoes
  • 1 tablespoons light brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons grated orange rind
  • 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 large egg whites (I substituted 1 whole egg)
  • 5 ounces low-fat evaporated milk
  • Cooking Spray
  • 1 cup pumpkin seed granola (such as Nature's Path)

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Prick the sweet potato skins. Bake until tender when pieced with a sharp sharp knife. The time will depend on how large the potatoes are. Mine were small and took about 30 minutes. Large ones may take one hour or more.
  • Coat a 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
  • When the baked potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel the skins and place in a large mixing bowl. Add the brown sugar, rind, juice, turmeric, vanilla, salt, egg whites, and milk. Mash the mixture until smooth and then spoon into the prepared baking dish.
  • Sprinkle granola over the potato mixture.
  • Bake at 350F degrees for 30 to 40 minutes.
