Cooking for yourself can sometimes be a struggle, because you have to cook almost everything in single serving proportions. Food like casserole, pie, and lasagna sound great — if you plan on eating them for the next three meals or on hosting a dinner party every day.
This marshmallow stuffed sweet potato skin recipe is perfect for just one. It tastes a lot like regular sweet potato casserole with a chewy skin and gooey center, and it only uses four ingredients.
Single-Serve Sweet Potato Casserole

- Total Time:1 hour
- Servings:1
- Easy
- 1 sweet potato
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 1/2 teaspoon brown sugar
- 1/4 cup mini marshmallows
Ingredients
-
Step 1
Preheat oven to 425°F degrees and spray a baking sheet with cooking oil.
-
Step 2
Stab the sweet potato about 10 times with a fork and place in the oven, on a baking sheet, for 35-40 minutes.
-
Step 3
Once the potato has cooled, slice it in half and scoop out the inside, leaving only a little bit surrounding the skin.
#SpoonTip: You can save the extra sweet potato for another dish, or eat it with your finished casserole.
-
Step 4
Place the skins back on the baking sheet, face up so they look like boats, and sprinkle on cinnamon and brown sugar and bake for 10 minutes.
-
Step 5
Place the marshmallows inside the boats and bake for additional 3-5 minutes until the marshmallows are soft and puffed up.
