For dinner parties, you can fill the ramekins and keep in your refrigerator until ready to bake. But you don't have to wait for a special occasion--cozy up to these on any chilly day. Life is good!

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

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Lightly coat the inside of six 6-oz ramekins with vegetable oil. Divide the potato mixture evenly among ramekins.
  4. 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.
