Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat a casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray.

Add vegan butter and mash to the desired consistency. Add almond milk, maple syrup, orange juice, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Pour into the prepared casserole dish.
Combine pecans, brown sugar, flour, vegan butter, and maple syrup in a bowl and sprinkle over casserole.
Bake in the preheated oven until hot, about 45 minutes.
