Crockpot Steakhouse Style Sweet Potatoes
These Sweet Potatoes are so easy to make in the slow cooker. Adding the brown sugar and cinnamon butter topping and broiled marshmallows makes these sweet potatoes extra special!
Ingredients
- 4 1.5 lb. sweet potatoes
Toppings:
- 6 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons confectioner's sugar
- Mini Marshmallows optional
Instructions
- Rinse the sweet potatoes and place into the bottom of a 6-7 quart crockpot. Add 1/4 cup water(*See note below) and cook on high for 3.5-5 hours or on low for 6-8 hours, until the sweet potatoes have softened to preference.
- Once the sweet potatoes have softened, mix the butter, cinnamon, brown sugar and salt with a hand mixer until well combined and smooth. Add confectioner's sugar and mix until the brown sugar and cinnamon butter has a little more volume. Serve the sweet potatoes plain with the brown sugar and cinnamon butter, or complete the step below.
- Optional step: cut a slit length-wise into the top of a cooked sweet potato and fill with the brown sugar and cinnamon butter, place marshmallows into the cavity and then broil at 450 degrees for 20-30 seconds, until the marshmallows have browned to your preference.
