Daytime

Published: December 1, 2009

Hands-on Time: 15 min.; Total Time: 39 min. Swing by the freezer section for one of our favorite convenience items—frozen sweet potatoes. If you want to skip the meringue in Step 2, top with miniature marshmallows instead.

Yield: Makes 8 servings

Ingredients
2 (24-oz.) packages frozen steam-and-mash sweet potatoes
1/3 cup butter, cut up
1/3 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1/3 cup pure maple syrup
3 teaspoons orange zest
1 teaspoon salt
4 egg whites
1/2 cup granulated sugar
Preparation
1. Preheat oven to 400°. Steam potatoes according to package directions. Mash together sweet potatoes and next 5 ingredients. Spoon mixture into 8 (6-oz.) custard cups. Place on a baking sheet.

2. Beat egg whites at high speed with an electric mixer until foamy. Add sugar, 1 Tbsp. at a time, beating until stiff peaks form and sugar is dissolved. Spread meringue over sweet potato mixture.

3. Bake at 400° for 10 minutes or until golden brown.

Note: We tested with Ore-Ida Steam n' Mash Cut Sweet Potatoes.
