Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 sweet potatoes or large yams, each about 10 ounces
About 3 tablespoons kosher salt, plus additional as needed
1 banana, with a 2-inch slit cut into the peel
8 tablespoons (4 ounces) unsalted butter
2 cups heavy cream
1 cinnamon stick
1/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon finely ground fresh black pepper, plus additional as needed

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.

  • 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.

CINNAMON HONEY MASHED SWEET POTATOES AND BANANA



Cinnamon Honey Mashed Sweet Potatoes and Banana image

I love to serve this all fall, but it also makes a wonderfully sweet Thanksgiving side. If you are cooking for a baby, you can optionally leave out the honey and add an additional tablespoon of dark brown sugar or scald the milk with honey it in to cook the honey so it is baby safe. My youngest is 11 months currently, and he had this last week, without consequence. Prepared in the above mentioned way.

BANANA SWEET POTATOES

Entered for safe-keeping. From Mary Wagner, Salt Lake City, Utah, as submitted to BH&G. As written, the recipe seems to be dry, so I recommend that 2 teaspoons of orange juice be added with the egg yolks in step 5 as recommended by a reviewer.
