Mini Sweet Potato “Casseroles” with Vegan Marshmallows (featuring the Inspiralized bun!)

Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 35 minutes
Total Time 40 minutes
Servings 2

Ingredients

  • olive oil cooking spray
  • 1 large sweet potato about 340 g, peeled, Blade C
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 1 whole egg
  • 1/2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 cup vegan mini-marshmallows

Instructions

  • Place a large skillet over medium heat and coat with cooking spray. Place in the sweet potato noodles and season with salt, pepper, cinnamon and nutmeg. Cook for about 7 minutes or until noodles have softened completely. The noodles will turn bright orange as they cook.
  • Place the noodles in a bowl and crack over the egg. Stir to combine thoroughly and coat all of the noodles.
  • Take out two 6oz ramekins. Place in enough noodles to pack the ramekin half-way full.
  • Place a piece of wax paper over the ramekins and push in to cover the noodles. Place a can of something (tomatoes, beans, etc) and press firmly down onto the noodles. Place the two ramekins in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.
  • Once the noodles are done cooling, remove the cans and paper from the two ramekins. Place a large skillet over medium-low heat and add in the olive oil. Very carefully, over the skillet, turn one ramekin over and tap the bottom with one hand until the noodles come out. Repeat for the other ramekin.
  • Cook (without moving) the noodle buns for about 3-4 minutes and then flip over and cook an additional 2-3 minutes or until all noodles are compact. There will be a slight char on both sides.
  • While the buns are cooking, set the oven to a medium-high broil.
  • Coat a baking tray with cooking spray. Place the noodle buns onto the tray and top with marshmallows. Pack the marshmallows in to cover the top of the bun.
  • Place the marshmallow-topped buns into the oven and broil for about 2 minutes or until the tops of the marshmallows brown lightly.
  • Remove from the oven and serve individually on a platter or cut into quarters and serve with toothpicks, as an appetizer!
