For a smoother casserole, use an electric mixer to combine the sweet potato mixture. To enhance the nutty flavor, toast the pecans lightly before chopping. If you don't have pecans, walnuts or other nuts can be substituted. For a richer flavor, use brown butter instead of melted butter in the topping. The casserole can be assembled ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before baking. Add 10 minutes to the baking time if baking from cold. Try adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the sweet potato mixture for a warmer spice flavor.
