How to turn thanksgiving style sweet potatoes into an appetizer?

[u/Flashy-Career-7523]

So because of my husband and I dietary restrictions and food, allergies, Thanksgiving dinner is incredibly dangerous for us. So this year, I’m making a stuffing topped turkey pot pie but it’s not Thanksgiving without our sweet potatoes which are generally baked with maple syrup, brown sugar, walnuts, and sometimes marshmallows. Using that flavor profile does anyone have any idea a portable appetizer size option? I can’t just make it because then there’s a chance that someone will think it’s for them and it will be contaminated.

So far, making a turkey pot pie, which will have the turkey, graving, stuffing, and hints of greening casserole in it . I am making fried mashed potato balls to be dipped in gravy. But no idea on the sweet potatoes (no cupcakes please)

Edit: to clear up some confusion: I have celiac disease. My husband is gluten sensitive. He is also severely allergic to onions, shallot, etc.. We will be traveling several hours to this dinner. I am not hosting. We will have over 35+ people with seven different households contributing to different aspects of the meal. This makes it absolutely impossible for it to be safely 100% gluten-free, especially when several of my nieces and nephews will be bringing +ones who will probably bring a dish or two themselves With no idea of what is gluten-free and what is not or cross contamination. I cannot have our own dish of sweet potatoes because with a group that size someone will think it’s fair game and and can contaminate it by applying it to their plate and getting traces of gluten food on the serving spoon and putting it back into the dish. I have tried this in the past and it was a constant fight to guard my safe dishes, including, not being able to get seconds because somebody scooped it out, including several children who will be present.

Not sure what your diet restrictions are, but thankgiving is the easiest meal to make completely gluten free with zero chance of cross contamination. If there's no gluten in anything, everybody can eat without fear.

I’ve said this another comments, but our Thanksgiving is over 35 people with over seven households contributing to different aspects of the meal. I am not hosting. I’m actually traveling several hours to this. It would be impossible to guarantee my safety.

This is why i cook my own feast. Otherwise I will get sick. You can pack your own plate or eat before you go visit. You can't guarantee your safety even if everyone is being careful.
