Notes
Use a potato masher in a large bowl to manually mash the potatoes, or puree in a blender or food processor. Measure after the potatoes are mashed.
Using fresh potatoes is best - scrub and bake at 350 degrees F for about 1 hour until completely soft, then peel and mash. Or use canned potatoes – you will need 2 cans. Drain and mash, then measure and use 3 cups total.

Can a person use winter squash like sweet meat instead of sweet potato? I live in northern B.C Canada, our season isnt long or hot enough to grow sweet potatoes.

If you are using cans, you'll need 2 cans. If you're mashing your own potatoes, how many you need will vary depending on their size. 5 medium sweet potatoes should get you to 3 cups. Hope this helps!
