Growing up we always had sweet potato casserole with melted marshmallows on top. I hate marshmallows and honestly growing up never really cared for sweet potatoes. My husband loves sweet potatoes. I found this video last year and made your recipe for thanksgiving. Not only was it a hit I developed a new liking to sweet potato casserole. Well here I am today after scrolling hundreds of pics in my phone to find the screen shots I took of your video to make this again! This is truly an amazing recipe!
I add the zest and juice from one orange, cinnamon and nutmeg. The nutmeg is very strong, so just a couple shakes. I love cinnamon so it’s to taste. The Ruth Chris recipe is the best sweet potato recipe I’ve ever had in my life! Thanks!
I used my steamer to cook the sweet potatoes for an hour, so that I didn’t have to watch them over the stove, and used a hand mixer to mix since it’s all I had. Very easy to make and delicious! Thank you for sharing.
Used my pressure cooker for 20 mins to cook them faster. Also, cut the sugar down to 1/2 cup as I think a whole cup of sugar in the potatoes is too sweet.
I make this the exact same way except I add a pinch of cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger to my mixture and a splash of heavy cream. Makes the sweet potatoes extra fluffy.
@@billie-leelawhon3941 no problem! That’s my moms little touch. It’s not a necessary ingredient, the potatoes are still delicious without them, but gives a little extra whip to them.
This is amazing I tried to make as close as I could to keto as possible and I even think the one I made closest possible is better then the normal one I have had both
@@IllChannelI just lay mine out on a baking sheet smother them in butter and sea salt and bake at 400 until they're dark golden brown. (The darker, the more rich the flavor) You can start them up midway but you don't have to. It usually takes 10 to 15 minutes.
@@IllChannel Toss pecans in butter and lay flat on sheet pan. Use pecan halves as they're less likely to burn. Then place in 325 oven for 8-10 minutes. Stir pecans and toast 5-6 more minutes. Keep a close eye on them as you don't want them to burn. If you use pecan pieces, cut the cooking times way down, like in half. The smaller the pieces, the more likely they will burn. You just want them to have a nice simple toast to them. If you just want toasted pecans that you aren't putting in sweet potatoes, add cinnamon or salt or maple syrup and brown sugar - these are wonderful holiday tasty treats!
Also about 1/2 to a whole can of carnation will get the strings out. And make sure pie and casserole filling smoother and lighter! Take a little to the side and try the lemon and nutmeg, you won't be disappointed
@@martinsilovehismusicwillia2182 I am doing great today I got my Covid Vaccine. And this Sweet potato was wildly celebrated in my home las holiday season.
Thank you so much for the recipe!! Looks delicious and easy, just what I needed! My family is each bringing a dish this year and I was really nervous but now I'm excited for everyone to love my casserole 😁
Found this recipe online about 4 years ago and have made it every year for Thanksgiving dinner since. It is always a crowd pleaser for the new comers, however I do miss the marshmallows :(
I have found that I have to strain my sweet potatoes before using them to get all the fiber strings out of them. Use the exact same recipe and it comes out great.
I hate when there’s a bunch of fiber strings in the casserole… can you elaborate on how you strain them? Do you mean after you boil them you strain the water out?
@@simplyayla I beat my sweet potatoes with an electric mixer. The fiber strings will wrap around the beaters. You can turn the mixer off and pull the fiber strands off the beaters and repeat as many times as needed. After preparing my sweet potatoes this way, I can continue on with my recipe.
I make this every year. I bake my sweet potatoes.. I place the raw potatoes in the dish I intend to use for the finished casserole. I make sure the dish is filled with potatoes and bake them. I also add cinnamon to the mashed sweet potatoes, eggs(3 for the size casserole I make), cinnamon, sugar. I always double the topping to make a large casserole. There are never left overs.
Wonderfully delicious recipe, thanks you. Just so you know that microwaving food kills the nutritional value. (You can research it yourself). Also, I find boiling the sweet potatoes creates too much water in the recipe, and they will not be as thick and creamy.
Anytime you use the real thing it’s so much better. Just from my experience making yams/sweet potatoes every year, that’s one thing I never take the short cut on. however If you are somewhere that doesn’t have fresh available, I could understand the use of canned.
@@smooveb191 Great. I will try it too. And I'm just going too use yams, I'm sure there's really no difference. Thanks for responding. And happy holidays.
No nuts please, and while you’re at it…no sugar or marshmallows. Try 1/4 tsp. Per four sweet potatoes. Baked 1 hr. at 425, cool and peel. Add 2 tbs. butter and 1/2 cup milk. Add 1/4 tsp. Cayenne pepper and blend well. Scoop potatoes into a small greased casserole dish, and heat uncovered for 15 minutes. Sprinkle nutmeg over top and serve. 😅 Merry Christmas and happy eating.🎄
I am a dumb old man with probably stupid question. What if you made this with white potatoes? Told my wife I have always heard, “9! Only stupid iquestion is the one you don’t ask. She replied, “No, only stupid people ask stupid questions”!
I made this, it is by FAR the best Sweet potato casserole I've ever eaten! You have got to make this!!!
Me too, I made this and it was fantastic!

That recipe is good for the family ☺️

Hi how are you doing
Thank you for the recipe!
This is amazing I tried to make as close as I could to keto as possible and I even think the one I made closest possible is better then the normal one I have had both
Please share! Currently doing keto and I love sweet potato casserole! Much appreciated 💞
Toast the pecans first. Ruth Chris does and the difference is amazing!
Great suggestions. It has such a depth of Flavor.
How do you toast the pecans..
I was just thinking that!

Sweet potato casserole is my sons new favorite food so ill be making this for him for Thanksgiving
Made this and it was wonderful! Thank you so much for this receipt.
So happy to see this recipe and video. Just what I was looking for. Thanks. (W's wife)

Lemon extract and nutmeg instead of vanilla, brings out the flavor of the sweet potatoes . Iam talking about a passed down recipe
Found this recipe online about 4 years ago and have made it every year for Thanksgiving dinner since. It is always a crowd pleaser for the new comers, however I do miss the marshmallows :(
Nicely done.
Great presentation.
I missed it earlier, but now I will make one for the Holidays using your directions/recipe.
Thank you!

Thats the childhood memory that landed me here 👍 👍 👍

@@simplyayla the fat round sweet potatoes are far less fibrous as well. Have them in my grasp rn

If you beat them with an electric mixer, the fibers will hang on to the beaters. Rinse the beaters and repeat. It works very well.
💖👼🏻🌺
Thank you so much for your recipe, looks delicious, I will try it ! 🙏💗😋😋😋
Potatoes will caramelize and are more flavorful if you bake them in oven 1st.
It looks delicious. Thank you for sharing your recipe. I'm going to try it.
Hi. Do you serve this warm or cold? Side dish or dessert? W marshmallows or not ? Thks.
Your sweet potato casserole worked out great for Thanksgiving! Thank you!!
Yum my favorite 😍

I tried this and it was a HIT!
Very good instructions,thankyou!

I skipped the butter and sugar in the sweet potato mixture. This will become a holiday staple! Thank you 😊
Simple and delicious! Thats exactly what I need for Thanksgiving! Thank you so much!
Thank you for thisssss. I love that ish
Great recipe. Thank you.
This recipe is fantastic and I don't even like sweet potatoes! It was ranked best of Thanksgiving, right behind the turkey!
So glad it was a hit!
I stumbled across your channel because I was looking for this sweet potato recipe. So glad I found you! I'm def making this for Thanksgiving! :)
Hi joelle
Make this every year but don't use as much sugar, delicious
You can also use a potato masher instead of a folk, it's easier.
Thank you ❤️
Can I use marshmallows with ingredients
Looks great!
If I cut the sugar to 1/2 will I have to compensate with other ingredients for it to have the same consistency?
I really like steaming my sweet potatoes.
I make this but use canned sweet potatoes. Works just fine
That good
How are you
Im going to make this but I'm thinking of adding marshmallows on top, hopefully the marshmallow works out on top of this
I like a little cinnamon and nutmeg in mine.
how much?? teaspoon?
@@Patrick-fz7cm a teaspoon of cinnamon less of nutmeg id say 2 dash. Nutmeg is very strong a lil goes a long way
Yumuyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Me too with cinnamon
Thanks so much for this video!
Can you make it a head of time and freeze it uncooked???thank you
Thank you! Happy Thanksgiving!! 🍁 🦃
Look so good .
I made this too - Delicious!
looks good.
Can you use brown sugar in the potato mix instead of white
Brown all the way for sure.
I would love to print this recipe. I really liked the video though. Thanks
How are you doing
Thank you!! Very nice 👍
Yeah
Melissa how are you doing
So do you double the baking time if you double the recipe?
How are you doing
Yummo
Add Marshmallows with condensed sweetened milk. I'm about to go make some. Lol
I’m a man trying to cook. Can I use canned sweet potatoes??
Yum
Really the only way to make it just like Ruth’s is to bake it in the individual ramekins. Ruth’s has a dry consistency that’s very hard to replicate.
Great!
This serves how many?
Just one 😂
Sweet potato casserole
Hi, can you make them ahead of time.?
Where can I find the written recipe
Wonderfully delicious recipe, thanks you. Just so you know that microwaving food kills the nutritional value. (You can research it yourself). Also, I find boiling the sweet potatoes creates too much water in the recipe, and they will not be as thick and creamy.
Can I substitute and use candy yams instead?
Anytime you use the real thing it’s so much better. Just from my experience making yams/sweet potatoes every year, that’s one thing I never take the short cut on. however If you are somewhere that doesn’t have fresh available, I could understand the use of canned.
@@debycox8722 i thought yams and sweet potatoes were the same i bought the yams hopefully they still come out good.
@@smooveb191 How did it come out ?
@@debbydebbp.7974 great theres no more the kids really liked it thanks for the recepie.
@@smooveb191 Great. I will try it too. And I'm just going too use yams, I'm sure there's really no difference. Thanks for responding. And happy holidays.
No milk or cream? I've never heard of a sweet potato casserole w/o.🤔
No nuts please, and while you’re at it…no sugar or marshmallows. Try 1/4 tsp. Per four sweet potatoes. Baked 1 hr. at 425, cool and peel. Add 2 tbs. butter and 1/2 cup milk. Add 1/4 tsp.

Merry Christmas and happy eating.🎄
halve the sugar!
Microwave 😵💫
Yeah that’s where I “noped” out.
She said microwave for the sweet potato’s lol 😢😢😅😅😅
The recipe that I have had 3 cups of butter.
Are you sure that wasn't Joel Robuchon's mashed potato recipe? His is a pot of potato-flavored butter.
More butter more better 😂
Hi cydney
I am a dumb old man with probably stupid question. What if you made this with white potatoes? Told my wife I have always heard, “9!
Only stupid iquestion is the one you don’t ask.

Your wife sounds like a bitch
What about the marshmallows ??? It's not sweetpotatos without them...
Keep eating McDonalds happy meals
