Preparation

Step 1

2 3/4 pounds sweet potatoes
1/4 cup half-and-half
3 tablespoons butter, melted
3 tablespoons maple syrup

1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
1 large egg, lightly beaten
Cooking spray
1/2 cup mini-marshmallows
2 tablespoons chopped pecans
