Sweet Potato Balls

By Community Recipe: Julie

If you are not a big fan of sweet potatoes I encourage you to give this a try. Our kids love to help and they are a hit at our thanksgiving potluck dinner.

Ingredients

  • 1 can (40 ounces) sweet potato
  • 1/4 cup butter or margarine salt (optional)
  • 3 cups crushed corn flakes
  • 3/4 cup maple syrup
  • 7-10 large marshmallows

Directions

Drain sweet potatoes and put into large mixing bowl. Mash the potatoes with butter or margarine. Salt to taste.

Hand pat mixture into 3 inch diameter balls. Roll in crushed corn flakes and put into 9x12 inch greased baking dish. Pour maple syrup evenly over all balls.

Bake at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for 40 minutes. The last fifteen minutes put a marshmallow over each ball.
