HOMEMADE MASHED SWEET POTATOES
WITH BANANAS
 
sweet potatoes
bananas
cinnamon
milk
butter

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.

These are the best mashed sweet potatoes I have ever had or made! I made them for Thanksgiving and they were a huge hit.

Enjoy! :)

Thank you for posting a sweet potato recipe that doesn't involve adding tons of extra sugar! I would have never thought to use a banana for some sweetness. This is one recipe that is delicious and healthy. Perfection!

This recipe sounded interesting and I just tried them. I have a problem with the fact that there are no quantities listed for the ingredients. I understand that some of that was for seasoning as desired purposes, but it would have been nice to have an idea of how many potatoes and bananas to use. I tried it using equal parts (3 each, to start small) potato and banana, but found the taste leaned too much on the banana side. I will try again using fewer bananas. I also found that it needed something to sweeten it a little. I added a little brown sugar which helped. I will try this recipe again in the future with these adjustments. Thanks for the recipe!

Great recipe,, I love the lack of measurements as this allowed me to play around. I added some white sugar to add a more punched out flavour. I had a blast with this recipe, the feedback was great; thank you!!
