The Best Sweet Potato Casserole Recipe

Ingredients

• 4 cups peeled, cubed sweet potatoes
• 2 large eggs, beaten
• 0.5 cup white sugar
• 0.5 cup milk
• 4 tablespoons butter, softened
• 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup packed brown sugar
• 0.33 cup all-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoons butter, softened
• 0.5 cup chopped pecans

Instructions

1. Collect all ingredients. Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
2. Sweet Potato Preparation: Place sweet potatoes in a saucepan, ensuring they are fully submerged in water. Cook over medium-high heat until tender, approximately 10 to 15 minutes. Drain the water and move the sweet potatoes to a large bowl.
3. Mash the drained sweet potatoes thoroughly using a fork. Incorporate eggs and mix until fully combined. Introduce sugar, milk, butter, vanilla, and salt; mix until the mixture is smooth. Transfer everything into a 9x13-inch baking dish.
4. Prepare the Topping: In a bowl, combine brown sugar and flour. Integrate butter using a pastry cutter until the mixture achieves a coarse, pea-like consistency; be careful not to overmix. Fold in pecans. Evenly distribute the topping over the sweet potato mixture.
5. Bake in the preheated oven until the topping attains a light golden-brown hue, roughly 30 minutes.
6. Serve immediately and enjoy!
