Ingredients
| 3 | med. | sweet potatoes (about 5 oz. each) |
| 1 | can | (20 oz.) crushed pineapple in its own juice, drained of juice except for 1/4 cup |
| 1 | Tbsp. | melted butter |
| 1 | tsp. | ground cinnamon |
| 1/2 | tsp. | ground allspice |
| 1/2 | tsp. | ground ginger |
| 1/4 | tsp. | ground cloves |
| Salt and fresh-ground black pepper to taste |
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Prick the surface of the sweet potatoes with a fork. Place the sweet potatoes directly on the oven rack with a foil-lined baking sheet placed on the rack directly below it. Roast the sweet potatoes for about 45 minutes or until fork tender.
- Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven, and set aside until cool enough to handle. Scoop the flesh from the sweet potatoes, discarding the skin. Add the flesh to a large bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and mash well.
- Place the sweet potato mixture into a 4-cup casserole dish, and bake at 400°F for 20 minutes or until bubbly and lightly browned.
