Ingredients Needed

One of my favorite things about this sweet potato cobbler is all of the simple ingredients that it uses! As long as you have sweet potatoes and marshmallows, you probably have everything else needed to whip it up! It makes life a little easier. Check out the recipe card below for measurements.

Sweet Potatoes: I used medium-sized sweet potatoes! You’ll want these to be diced and boiled before you use them for your cobbler.

Dough:

Unsalted Butter: Makes your crust soft and rich!Flour: All-purpose works great here!Baking Powder: Because we want the cobbler to be crumbly and light instead of dense, baking powder is a must-add.Salt: Keeps the dough from tasting bland.Sugar: Regular granulated sugar works just fine!Milk: I recommend using whole milk if you have it. It will make your dough more soft and tender because of the high-fat content.Spices: For the dough, I added a little cinnamon and allspice for that perfect fall flavor.

Syrup Filling:

Sugar: I use a mix of white and brown sugar for a deeper sweetness. (You can also use light brown sugar!)Hot Water: Use the leftover water from boiling your potatoes! I love doing this because it adds some extra flavor, too.Vanilla: Helps deepen the flavor of the filling. Use pure vanilla extract if you have it! It’s my favorite to cook with because it adds the BEST flavor.Spices: For the sweet potato cobbler filling, I used cinnamon and cardamom.Mini Marshmallows: (Optional) These may be optional, but no holiday sweet potato recipe is complete without melty marshmallows on top.

How to Make the Best Sweet Potato Cobbler

This sweet potato cobbler recipe is one you’ll want to come back to again and again for the holidays! It’s just too good to pass up. One bite and you’ll understand why it’s so popular!

Partially Cook Sweet Potatoes: Don’t overboil the sweet potatoes, you should be able to poke them with a fork and meet some resistance in the center. They will finish cooking in the oven, and you don’t want them to be too soft.Marshmallow Topping: Marshmallows are a sweet addition and reminiscent of a classic baked sweet potato dish, but for this recipe, it is definitely optional!Add a Lattice: For a picture-perfect finish, use strips of pie crust on top of your cobbler to create a lattice pattern!

In the Refrigerator: Store wrapped in plastic wrap or in an airtight container for 2-3 days.
