Sweet Potato Casserole Mini Galettes Recipe By Tasty

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
• Add the chopped sweet potatoes and 1 tablespoon of salt to a large pot of cold water. Bring to a boil and cook for 15 minutes, or until very tender. Drain and let cool slightly.
• Transfer the sweet potatoes to a large bowl. Add the butter, remaining tablespoon of salt, the milk, and eggs. Mix with an electric hand mixer until the potatoes are mashed and everything is well incorporated.
• Transfer half of the sweet potatoes to another large bowl.
• Make the sweet base: To a bowl, add the brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla. Mix well to combine.
• Make the savory base: To the other bowl, add the green onions, garlic, and pepper. Mix well to combine.
• Spread the sweet base in one side of a 9x13-inch (23x33-cm) baking dish. Press the uncooked sweet potato slices against the exposed side of the sweet base as a divider, then spread the savory base in the other side of the pan.
• Make the sweet topping: In a small bowl, combine the butter, brown sugar, flour, and pecans, and mix until crumbly. Sprinkle over the sweet base.
• Make the savory topping: In another small bowl, combine bread crumbs, salt, pepper, bacon bits, and oil, and stir to combine. Sprinkle the crumbs over the savory base.
• Bake the sweet potato casserole for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
• Remove the casserole from oven and top the sweet side with the halved marshmallows, cut-side down.
• Return to the oven and broil on high for 1-2 minutes, or until the marshmallows are golden brown and toasted.
• Remove the casserole from the oven and sprinkle the savory side with green onions.
• Serve warm.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Make the crust: Pulse the flour, sugar and salt in a food processor to mix. While pulsing, drop the butter through the feed tube. Continue pulsing, scraping the bowl occasionally, until the mixture looks like coarse meal dotted with small and large chunks. Add water a little at a time, mixing in short and longer pulses between additions, until bumpy curds form. They should hold together when pinched. Press the dough into a ball, then flatten into a disk and place between parchment paper.
• Roll the dough into a circle a bit larger than 11 inches in diameter, then trim to 11 inches; prick all over with a fork. Refrigerate between parchment on a baking sheet for at least 2 hours (or freeze for 1 hour).
• Center a rack in the oven and heat oven to 400 degrees.
• Cover the chilled crust (still between parchment on the baking sheet) with another baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes, remove the top baking sheet and parchment paper and bake for another 8 minutes or so, until lightly golden. Set aside. (You can make this up to 8 hours ahead.)
• Make the galette: In a medium bowl, with a flexible spatula, beat together the cream cheese, Parmesan, milk, 2 teaspoons maple syrup, 1 teaspoon chile powder and the salt. Taste and add more chile, if you'd like. (It will get hotter when it bakes.) Cut the potato and the apple into very thin rounds using a mandoline or sharp knife.
• While you don't want the cheese mixture to completely cover the crust, you do want the potato and apple slices to go right to the edge of the crust, so spread the cheese mixture over the crust, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Then, cover the entire crust with the potato and apple slices in slightly overlapping concentric circles. (You may have some slices left.) Mix together the remaining 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, the oil and 1/4 teaspoon chile powder. Brush this mixture over the galette (just gloss the top - you might not need all of the mixture). Sprinkle with Parmesan and pecans, if using.
• Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are softened and cooked through (test with the point of a knife). Scatter with chives, if using, and let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. The galette is also good warm or at room temperature.
