Grilled Sweet Potatoes With Sweet Glaze Recipe

5 from 2 votes
Sweet potatoes are one of those dishes that screams for a sweet glaze. These are first grilled over charcoal for a hint of smokiness, then topped with a brown sugar and butter glaze and mini marshmallows. Grilled sweet potatoes, yum.

Ingredients
  

  • 4 sweet potatoes large, skinned
  • ¾ cup butter
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ cup chopped pecans
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1 tbs Olive oil

Method
 

  1. Preheat the grill for direct heat. Cut the sweet potatoes into ½" rounds. Brush with oil.
  2. Grill over direct heat until grill marks appear, about 6 minutes per side.
  3. Melt the butter and brown sugar in a small sauce pan until sugar dissolves. Stir in the vanilla extract and cinnamon.
  4. Remove the sweet potatoes from the grill and place them on an oven proof pan. Brush the sweet potatoes with the glaze, top with pecans and then marshmallows.
  5. Broil for a few minutes until the marshmallows soften and start to brown. Don't walk away because the marshmallows will burn quickly and catch fire. Ask me how I know that. Enjoy
