Ingredients
1 cup mashed sweet potato (cooked & cooled)
2 tbsp brown sugar
½ tsp cinnamon
¼ tsp nutmeg
Pinch of salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 sheet pie crust or puff pastry
12 mini marshmallows (or 1 large cut in half per pie)
1 egg (for egg wash)
Optional: powdered sugar for dusting or maple glaze
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Make filling: Mix sweet potato, sugar, spices, salt, and vanilla until smooth.
Cut pastry into circles or rectangles (about 3 inches across). Place 1 tsp filling and a marshmallow in the center of each.
Seal pies: Top with another pastry cutout, crimp edges with a fork, and cut a small steam slit. Brush with egg wash.
Bake for 15–18 minutes until golden brown.
Finish: Cool slightly and dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with glaze.
