Forget the sweet potatoes, try this Pumpkin Casserole with Roasted Marshmallows. Pure pumpkin flavor, almost tastes like pumpkin pie topped with marshmallows. Delicious! A fun fall side dish for any occasion!
Gooooooood morning! It’s day 2 of our fabulous, fun Pumpkin Week and today I am bringing you this incredibly delicious, super simple, perfect side dish – Pumpkin Casserole with Roasted Marshmallows.
This was born of my daughters desire to re-create my sweet potato casserole, somehow into a pumpkin version, and through some trial and error, we made it work.
I mean why not right? It’s pumpkin, and has a similar flavor – yet different texture than a sweet potato. She is pretty proud of her pumpkin version.
To be honest, you can definitely tell it’s not sweet potato casserole based on the flavor but it’s a mild difference. The tastes are similar, but not exact. It’s just as good for sure, if not better.
However, because pumpkin cooks up a little differently than sweet potato, the texture is also different too – but again, smooth, creamy and delicious.
We were absolutely thrilled to make a dish that so closely resembles something else we really love with a twist. Pumpkin Casserole with Roasted Marshmallows would be great for any holiday meal this season!
It’s a week long pumpkin fest and the recipes that went around yesterday looked incredible!
