Our go-to dish for candied sweet potatoes is Boston Market Sweet Potato Casserole (copycat). It's either travel a long way or try this recipe for a holiday tradition if you don't live near a Boston Market.
In a large stock pot, boil and the cook the potatoes until fork through. Or bake the sweet potatoes by rubbing vegetable oil on the outer layer and bake for 60-70 minutes at 400 degrees.
Remove the sweet potatoes from the water and allow to cool. Once cooled, peel the skin, and place the sweet potatoes in a bowl. Mash with a potato masher. For ultra-silkiness, we recommend using an immersion blender to mash the sweet potatoes. While the potatoes are in the bowl or mixing stand, using an immersion blender or electric mixer, combine the heavy cream, butter, salt, brown sugar, cinnamon, molasses, and almond extract together. Mix until well combined. Pour the potato mixture in an 8x8 baking dish. Set aside.
To prepare the oatmeal streusel: Using a food processor or a high-quality blender, add the oats, flour, cinnamon, brown sugar, and blend to combine. With a paring knife, cut the cold butter and the butter to the mixture. Use a fork to break down the butter. You will notice the mixture will form into small lumps, similar to pea-size bits.Sprinkle the oatmeal streusel over the sweet potato mixture and bake for 60-70 minutes at 350 degrees. Add the marshmallows and place back in oven for no more than 5 minutes. Let sit to cool for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
