Ingredients
For Base:
5 sweet potatoes, peeled, cooked, and mashed
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup butter
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons heavy cream
For the topping:
1/4 cup butter, softened
3 tablespoons flour
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup pecans, chopped
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Lightly grease a 9×13-inch casserole dish.
In a large bowl, combine the mashed sweet potatoes, salt, 1/4 cup butter, eggs, vanilla, ground cinnamon, sugar, and heavy cream. Mix until well incorporated.
Pour the mixture into your prepared casserole dish.
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the remaining 1/4 cup butter, flour, light brown sugar, and chopped pecans. Mix until coarse using a pastry blender or your fingers.
Sprinkle the pecan brown sugar topping over the top of the sweet potato mixture.
Bake in the oven until the pecans turn toasty-brown in color, for about 30 minutes.
Serve warm!
