Sweet Potato Stacks Food

CRISPY POTATO STACKS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly spray a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray and set aside.
• Melt the butter in a microwave or small saucepan over medium-low heat. Set aside.
• Slice the russets and sweet potatoes 1/16-inch thick using a mandoline and place in a bowl. Toss the potato slices with the butter, herbs, garlic, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper until the potatoes are evenly coated. Layer the potatoes evenly in the prepared muffin tin, stacking them one on top of the other until they are about 1 inch above the top of each muffin cup. Bake until the edges of the potatoes are golden and crispy, about 25 minutes.
• Let cool 5 minutes, then run a small offset spatula or butter knife around the edge of each stack to help them release. Transfer to a serving platter, sprinkle with Parmesan and serve immediately.

CANDIED SWEET POTATO STACKS

Steps:

• Preheat the grill. Preheat your pellet grill (or oven) to 350 degrees F.
• Prep the sweet potatoes. Peel the sweet potatoes and slice very thinly. You can even use a mandolin to slice the sweet potatoes evenly. Brush the cups of a muffin tin with some of the melted butter.
• Make the brown sugar butter sauce. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla.
• Make the sweet potato stacks. Stack 5-6 slices of sweet potato in the bottom of each muffin cup. Spoon a teaspoon of the butter/brown sugar mixture over each of the small stacks of potatoes. Fill the rest of the muffin tins with the remaining sweet potatoes. Top each stack with the remaining brown sugar and butter sauce.
• Bake the sweet potatoes. Place the sweet potato stacks in the grill or oven. Bake for 40 minutes.
• Top with marshmallow and nuts, and finish baking. Remove the muffin tin from the grill or oven and top each with a tablespoon of the marshmallow fluff and a sprinkle of the pecans. Return to the grill and cook for an additional 5 minutes until the marshmallow fluff is heated through and starts to melt down the stacks.
• Rest and serve. Remove the pan from the grill and leave the sweet potato stacks in the muffin tin for 10 minutes while they cool slightly and set. Carefully use a spoon to lift out each stack and transfer to a serving dish. You can also spoon any additional caramel sauce from the muffin tin over the stacks.

ROASTED SWEET POTATO STACKS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375F/190C (standard) or 350F/180C (fan/convection).
• Peel the potatoes, then slice thinly (about 2 mm / 1/10" thick). Transfer into a large bowl.
• Add remaining ingredients. Toss well with your hands.
• Place piles of the slices in the muffin tin. Don't worry if they are higher than the rim - they shrink about 25%.
• Top each stack with about 1/2 tsp of the remaining butter mixture in the bowl.
• Bake for 45 minutes, or until the edge of the top slices are starting to brown and the inside of the stacks are cooked (use skewer or knife to check).
• Use a fork and knife to remove the stacks from the muffin tin. Optional: Brush tops with residual butter in muffin tin. Serve as soon as possible.

SWEET POTATO STACKS

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
• Peel the sweet potatoes and slice very thinly into rounds (or use a mandoline). Brush the cups of a 12-cup muffin tin with some of the melted butter. Stack 5 to 6 slices sweet potato in the bottom of each muffin cup.
• Combine the melted butter, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg in a small bowl. Spoon a teaspoon of the butter/brown sugar mixture over each of the small stacks of potatoes. Fill the muffin tin with the remaining sweet potatoes. Top each stack with the remaining brown sugar and butter mixture, then bake for 40 minutes.
• Remove the muffin tin from the oven and top each muffin cup with a tablespoon of the marshmallow creme and a sprinkle of the pecans. Return to the oven and bake until the marshmallow creme is heated through and starts to melt down the stacks, an additional 5 minutes.
• Leave the sweet potato stacks in the muffin tin for 10 minutes while they set and cool slightly. Carefully use a spoon to lift out each stack and transfer to a serving dish. Spoon any additional caramel sauce from the muffin tin over the stacks.

SWEET POTATO COFFEE CAKE STACKS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil, for easy cleanup, and set aside.
• In a large bowl, toss together the sweet potato slices, melted butter, brown sugar, maple syrup, vanilla and salt until evenly combined and well coated. Transfer the sweet potato slices onto the prepared baking sheet, arranging them in a single layer. If they all don't fit on one baking sheet, you might need two; it's important to have them all in a single layer and not overlapping.
• Bake until soft and golden brown, about 30 minutes, flipping them over halfway through baking for even browning. Remove from the oven and allow them to cool slightly.
• In the meantime, to make the topping, in a large bowl, combine the brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the nuts, oats, and chocolate chips.
• Pour about a tablespoon of filling onto half of the potato slices. Then place the remaining unfilled potato slices onto the filling to make a stack. Top with another 1 tablespoon of filling. Return to the oven and bake for another 15 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly. Arrange the stacks onto a platter and dust with powdered sugar, right before serving.
