Istruzioni

Make the Filling

To a large stockpot, add the sweet potato chunks, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Cook over high heat until sweet potatoes are fork tender. Drain well and transfer to a large bowl.

Preheat oven to 350F and spray a 2.5 to 3-quart baking dish or a 9×13-inch baking pan with cooking spray; set aside.

To the large bowl with the sweet potatoes, add the eggs, butter, milk, brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla, salt, optional nutmeg, optional cinnamon, and beat with a handheld electric mixer on medium-high speed until combined and fluffy.

Turn out into baking dish, smoothing the top lightly with a spatula; set aside.

Make the Pecan Topping

To a large microwave-safe bowl, add the butter and heat on high power to melt, about 1 minute.

Add the brown sugar, flour, salt, and toss with a fork or your fingers until moist crumbs form.

Add the pecans and toss to incorporate.

Evenly turn topping out over filling.

Bake

Bake the sweet potato casserole for about 45 minutes (or cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours if you’re prepping it in advance), or until top is lightly golden browned, set on the edges, and mostly set in the center. Mine took 50 minutes because I started with it cold from the fridge because I prepped it the night before. Baking time will vary based on pan used (glass or ceramic baking dishes will bake for longer than metal pans), oven, climate, ingredient variances, etc. Start checking at 30 minutes.

Serve immediately. Extra will keep airtight for up to 1 week in the fridge.
