This casserole is divine! It isn't the quickest of recipes, but it is worth it! I will speak from experience, do not forget it in the broiler! I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Ingredients-
2 pounds peeled and cubed sweet potatoes
3/4 cup sugar
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/3 cup flour
1/4 cup evaporated milk
5 tbsp melted butter
1/2 tsp salt, and 1/8 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
Directions-
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Spray 9x13 casserole dish.
2. Place potatoes in large pan or dutch oven. Cover with water. Bring to a boil, and then let simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and let cool about 5-10 minutes.
3. In a large bowl combine potatoes, sugar, evaporated milk, 3 tbsp butter, 1/2 tsp salt, and vanilla and nix with a mixer at medium speed until smooth.
4. Add eggs, and mix again. Then pour into the prepared casserole dish.
For the topping-
1. In a bowl, whisk together 1 cup (lightly filled, not packed) of flour, brown sugar and 1/8 tsp salt.
2. Add 2 tbsp melted butter, and whisk again.
3. This will form a floury, gooey mixture. Sprinkle it over the potatoes.
4. Then sprinkle the pecans over that.
5. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until topping is golden in color.
6. Remove from the oven, and then turn on the broiler. Once the broiler is hot, broil the casserole for 30-45 seconds until topping is bubbly.
Enjoy!
