Sweet Potato Casserole

This baked sweet potato casserole topped with a delicious pecan topping is so good and creamy.

Ingredients
  

  • Sweet Potatoes:

4 cups peeled, cubed sweet potatoes

2 large eggs, beaten

½ cup white sugar

½ cup milk

4 tablespoons butter, softened

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

½ teaspoon salt

Pecan Topping:

½ cup packed brown sugar

⅓ cup all-purpose flour

3 tablespoons butter, softened

½ cup chopped pecans

Instructions
 

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

    Prepare sweet potatoes: Put sweet potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with water. Cook over medium-high heat until tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain and transfer to a large bowl.

      Mash drained sweet potatoes with a fork. Add eggs; mix until well combined. Add sugar, milk, butter, vanilla, and salt; mix until smooth. Transfer to a 9x13-inch baking dish.

        Make topping: Mix brown sugar and flour together in a medium bowl. Cut in butter with a pastry cutter until mixture is coarse and looks like peas; don't overmix. Stir in pecans. Sprinkle topping over sweet potato mixture.

          Bake in the preheated oven until topping is lightly browned, about 30 minutes.
