THE BEST SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE



The Best Sweet Potato Casserole image

We opted for a nutty crumb topping over marshmallows to create a pleasantly crunchy contrast to the creamy and soft mashed sweet potatoes. The filling gets a pumpkin pie-like treatment, with brown sugar and vanilla for a deep caramel flavor and butter and eggs for richness. This recipe is bound to become a holiday staple.

Spread the mixture over the top of the sweet potatoes in an even layer. Bake until mostly set in the center and golden on top, 25 to 30 minutes. Serve hot.

"MISSY'S" SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE



This is the recipe I have been using for years, and I am putting it here for safekeeping. I was making it this morning for Thanksgiving and noticed that my copy is starting to get soiled. This is so good, you could almost eat it for dessert.

SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE



Sweet Potato Casserole image

This take on the classic Thanksgiving side has the right amount of sweetness and irresistible buttery flavor, not to mention the right balance of creamy and crunchy. Crushed cornflakes make the topping extra crisp, but you can skip them if you want. The two cups of mini marshmallows called for may not cover your entire casserole, allowing a little of that sweet potato filling to peek out, but feel free to use more marshmallows to cover it all the way. With all its flavors and textures combined, this quintessential holiday dish will have everyone coming back for more.

Time 2h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick), at room temperature, plus more for greasing the pan
6 large sweet potatoes (about 4 pounds), scrubbed
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup finely chopped pecans
1 cup lightly crushed cornflakes (optional)
1/2 packed cup light or dark brown sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup unsalted butter (1/2 stick), melted
2 cups mini marshmallows, plus more to taste

Steps:

  • Prepare the filling: Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with butter and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Poke the sweet potatoes all over with a fork and place on the baking sheet. Bake until soft, about 1 hour; let cool.
  • When sweet potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel them using a knife, then add the flesh to a large bowl (or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment) and mash with a potato masher or fork.
  • Add the 1/2 cup butter, eggs, condensed milk, granulated sugar, vanilla and salt to the bowl. Combine well with a hand mixer or a stand mixer on medium speed. Add the mixture to the prepared baking dish and, using a spatula, smooth out the top.
  • Prepare the topping: In a medium bowl, stir together the pecans, cornflakes (if using), brown sugar, flour and butter until thoroughly combined. Spoon the topping evenly over the sweet potatoes.
  • Bake the casserole until slightly browned, about 35 minutes. Remove the casserole from the oven and add the marshmallows in an even layer. Return to the oven and bake until marshmallows are toasty and melted, about 5 minutes. Let sit for 5 minutes before serving.

SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE



Sweet Potato Casserole image

I have used this Southern Living recipe for years at my Thanksgiving dinners. It calls for two separate toppings to be placed diagonally across the top. You can use either or both -- the marshmallow topping is popular with the kids while the cornflake/pecan topping is more an adult preference. Enjoy!
