Ingredient List
- 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 2" chunks
- 2 cups Mountain High® original, lowfat or fat free plain yoghurt
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon grated gingerroot
- 1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon dry unseasoned bread crumbs
- 6 teaspoons Mountain High® original, lowfat or fat free plain yoghurt
- 3 tablespoons chopped pecans, toasted
Preparation
- In a 2-quart saucepan, place potatoes and enough water to cover potatoes. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer potatoes 10 to 15 minutes or until potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork. Drain and cool slightly.
- Transfer potatoes to a large bowl, and mash well with a potato masher. Add yoghurt, salt, cinnamon, 1/4 cup brown sugar, and ginger. Combine well with a hand mixer.
- Lightly coat the inside of six 6-oz ramekins with vegetable oil. Divide the potato mixture evenly among ramekins.
- In a small bowl, mix the 1 tablespoon brown sugar and the bread crumbs. Sprinkle over potato mixture. Bake ramekins at 400°F until tops are golden brown, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven and garnish with a dollop of yoghurt and sprinkle with pecans.
