Best Banana Mashed Potatoes Recipes

MASHED SWEET POTATOES WITH BANANA AND BROWN SUGAR

Steps:

• 1. Wash each of the potatoes well, poke holes into them with a fork, rub each with about 1 teaspoon of salt, and wrap with heavy-duty aluminum foil.
• 2. Place directly on hot coals and cook for about 20 minutes, or cook in a 350°F barbecue for about 50 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a paring knife. At the same time, cook the banana in the peel until blackened, about 15 minutes.
• 3. Carefully take the potatoes out of the foil and scoop the flesh out from the skin into a large bowl. Cover with foil. Scoop the flesh out of the banana into a separate bowl.
• Increase temperature to high.
• 4. Place a small roasting pan or deep baking dish with high sides that can take the direct flame (a 13 x 9-inch baking dish with a 15-cup capacity is ideal) over the heat and let heat up for 5 minutes.
• Add the butter and let melt. Add the cream, cinnamon stick, brown sugar, potatoes, banana, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Using a potato masher, mash the potatoes and banana, and stir to combine.
• Season to taste with additional salt and pepper as needed.

BANANA MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Peel potatoes. Place in a large pot of salted cold water. Bring to a boil.
• Boil 25 minutes, or until tender. They should provide no resistance when poked with a fork.
• During the last five minutes of boiling, peel your banana. Take a bite (a whole banana is a little overwhelming, but a banana with a big bite taken out does just right). Drop the rest of the banana in the water with the potatoes and let it boil with them for the last five minutes. This softens it.
• Drain the potatoes and banana and place in a large bowl.
• Add the butter and a little half and half and cream with a hand mixer. Add half and half as needed to get a creamy texture.
• Add salt and pepper to taste. These are great with lots of fresh cracked black pepper.
• Enjoy!

MASHED SWEET POTATOES WITH BANANA

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 375°F. Wrap sweet potatoes in foil and poke a few holes so they don't explode. When potatoes are half way done, arrange unpeeled bananas on an ungreased cookie sheet and place in oven. Cook until both potatoes and bananas are soft. Banana peels will be black, so don't worry. When done, remove the peels from the bananas; combine potatoes and bananas in a large bowl and mash together. Transfer mixture to a large pot and heat over medium/high heat. Season liberally with cinnamon and butter. Add milk until desired creaminess. Mix until done.

• Use either a potato masher or an immersion blend to puree mix. Cook for an additional 5-10 minutes.
• Convert to a serving dish. Optionally sprinkle with candied walnuts. Enjoy!
