SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE<br />

WITH PECAN TOPPING<br />

Submitted by: Karen Whitt<br />

INGREDIENTS<br />

Casserole Ingredients<br />

• 3-4 large sweet potatoes<br />

• ½ c. milk<br />

• ¹∕ ³ -½ c. sugar<br />

• ¼ c. melted butter<br />

• 1 tsp. vanilla<br />

• 1 tsp. cinnamon<br />

• ½ tsp. nutmeg<br />

• ½ tsp. fine salt<br />

• 1 egg<br />

Topping Ingredients<br />

• 1¼ c. chopped pecans<br />

• ½ c. flour<br />

• ½ c. light brown sugar<br />

• ½ tsp. salt<br />

• ½ tsp. vanilla<br />

• ¼ c. softened butter<br />

DIRECTIONS<br />

Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease a 9x13 casserole dish. In a bowl, combine<br />

the pecans, flour, sugar, salt, and vanilla. Cut in the butter with a pastry<br />

cutter until the mixture is sandy, with pea-sized chunks of butter. Set aside.<br />

Peel the sweet potatoes and place in a large pot and cover with water. Boil<br />

for 20-30 minutes until cooked through. Add the cooked sweet potatoes<br />

to a bowl with the other filling ingredients. Use a hand mixer to whip the<br />

sweet potatoes until smooth. Taste and add more salt, sugar or milk as<br />

needed. (You may need to adjust the consistency/flavor based on how big<br />

your sweet potatoes are.) Whip the sweet potatoes until they are creamy<br />

and completely smooth.<br />

Smooth the sweet potato filling into the prepared dish. Top with the pecan<br />

mixture. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the top is golden and the sweet<br />

potatoes are bubbling. Let cool 10 minutes before serving.<br />

Enjoy!<br />
