For an even richer flavor, use browned butter instead of melted butter in both the sweet potato mixture and the pecan topping.
Toast the pecans lightly before chopping to enhance their nutty flavor.
If you don't have ground nutmeg on hand, a pinch of mace can be substituted.
This casserole can be assembled ahead of time and refrigerated, unbaked, for up to 24 hours. Add 10-15 minutes to the baking time if baking from cold.
Try adding a tablespoon of bourbon or rum to the sweet potato mixture for a sophisticated twist.
