Roasted Sweet Potato With Banana Walnut Crumbles Food

WHIPPED SWEET POTATOES AND BANANAS WITH HONEY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Prick the sweet potatoes all over with a fork, put them in a roasting pan and roast for 30 minutes. Toss the bananas into the pan and continue roasting for 10 to 15 minutes, until both the bananas and potatoes are very soft. Remove the pan from the oven but don't turn the oven off.
• When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, scoop out the flesh into a large mixing bowl. Peel the bananas and add them to the bowl along with 1 stick of the butter, and the honey. Season with salt and beat vigorously with a wooden spoon until everything's well combined and the mixture is fluffy. Spoon into an oven-proof serving bowl and smooth the top.
• In a separate mixing bowl, use your fingers to rub together the remaining stick of butter, the brown sugar, flour, and pecans until the mixture is the consistency of coarse crumbs. Sprinkle the crumb mixture over the sweet potatoes and return to the oven. Cook for about 20 minutes, until the crumbs are golden. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Scrub potatoes; place in large saucepan with salt. Add boiling water to cover; bring to boil over high heat. Cover pan and reduce heat to low; simmer 30-35 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Drain, peel and cut potatoes crosswise into 1/4" thick slices.
• Preheat oven to 375. Using butter, margarine or solid vegetable shortening, thoroughly grease a 2 qt deep casserole dish.
• Peel bananas; cut into 1/4" thick slices. In medium bowl, place bananas and orange juice; toss to coat. In small bowl, mix brown sugar with cinnamon. Set aside.
• In bottom of prepared casserole dish, arrange 1/3 of the potato slices in a single layer, overlapping the slices slightly. Top with half of the banana slices and sprinkle with 1/3 of the sugar mixture. Dot with 1/3 of the butter.
• Repeat layering with another 1/3 of the potato slices and the remaining bananas, reserving some bananas for the top. Sprinkle with 1/3 of the sugar mixture and 1/3 of the butter. Top with remaining potato slices; arrange several banana slices on top. Sprinkle with remaining sugar mixture; dot with remaining butter and pour on rest of orange juice. Bake 45 minutes or until bubbly.

SWEET POTATO CRUMBLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• For the mashed sweet potatoes: Cover the sweet potatoes with cold water in a medium saucepan and simmer over medium heat until fork-tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Drain off the excess water and transfer the potatoes to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Add the milk, cardamom and 4 tablespoons of the brown sugar and mix on medium until smooth, 3 to 4 minutes. Taste and add more brown sugar if desired. Set aside to cool.
• Spray a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
• For the cake layer: In a clean bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the egg and brown sugar until fluffy and thick, about 4 minutes. Add the yogurt, oil, vanilla extract and orange zest and mix until well combined. Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Mix until the batter just comes together; it will be thick. Spread the batter into the bottom of the greased baking dish. Cover the batter evenly with the sweet potato mixture.
• For the crumble: Combine the flour, brown sugar and melted butter in a small bowl. Mix with your hands until the mixture forms a rough crumbly texture. Sprinkle over the sweet potato and bake until the bottom is set and the crumb topping is golden brown, about 30 minutes.

ROASTED SWEET POTATO WITH BANANA WALNUT CRUMBLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Place a rack in the middle of the oven and another in the lower third.
• Combine the oats, walnuts, sugar, salt and mashed banana, then cut in the butter. Spread the mixture on a parchment-paper-lined baking sheet. With damp hands, pat the mixture into an even 1/4-inch layer.
• Place the sweet potatoes, cut-side up, in a baking pan and place on the bottom oven rack. Place the topping on the upper rack. Bake the topping until the edges are lightly browned, 15 to 18 minutes. Cool the topping, but leave the potatoes in the oven to continue cooking until a knife inserted in the center comes out easily, about 1 hour total.
• When the topping is cool enough to handle, break into pea-size crumbles. Use a fork to scrape and fluff the insides of the potatoes. Sprinkle the potatoes with the crumb topping, then drizzle each with some of the honey and serve immediately.
• Cook's Notes: To make this recipe gluten-free, use gluten-free rolled oats.
• The banana walnut crumb topping yields about 1 1/2 cups.
