Cranberry Streusel Sweet Potatoes image

Delicious, not especially sweet and simple! A great addition to your holiday table. I used 1/3 cup panko bread crumbs instead of the soft crumbs and it made a lovely crunch to the topping. You may make the sweet potato part the day before and then cook with streusel 30 minutes before serving.

Time 1h20m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 medium sweet potatoes, peeled
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup soft breadcrumbs (1 slice)
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup pecans, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons butter, melted

Steps:

  • Place sweet potatoes in a 3 quart saucepan; add enough water to cover.
  • Cover and heat to boiling; reduce heat.
  • Simmer 20 to 25 minutes or until tender; drain well.
  • Mash potates and mix well with 2 tablespoons melted butter (I mixed them in a table top mixer so my hands were free to do other stuff - made a lovely smooth fluffy texture!).
  • Spoon into ungreased 1-quart casserole.
  • Mix remaining ingredients; sprinkle over the potatoes.
  • Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes or until heated through and streusel mixture is golden brown.
