For an extra layer of flavor, try toasting the pecans before chopping. If you don't have pecans, walnuts or almonds make a great substitute. Ensure the sweet potatoes are fully cooked before mashing for the best texture. The casserole can be assembled ahead of time and baked just before serving. Cover and refrigerate until ready to bake, adding about 10 minutes to the baking time. For a richer flavor, substitute half-and-half or heavy cream for the milk.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Generously spray a 9x11-inch casserole dish with cooking spray. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
02
StepPlace sweet potatoes in a large pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until fork-tender, approximately 15-20 minutes. Drain well, measure out 3 cups of cooked sweet potatoes, and return them to the pot. Reserve any remaining sweet potatoes for another delicious use. (Cook time: 20 minutes)
03
StepUsing an electric mixer, blend the white sugar, milk, eggs, cubed butter, and vanilla extract with the sweet potatoes until the mixture is impeccably smooth. Pour this velvety concoction into the prepared casserole dish. (Prep time: 10 minutes)
04
StepIn a separate bowl, marry the chopped pecans, flaked coconut, brown sugar, flour, and melted butter. Mix until the streusel topping is uniformly combined and delightfully crumbly. Sprinkle this irresistible topping evenly over the sweet potato mixture in the dish. (Prep time: 10 minutes)
05
StepBake in the preheated oven until the streusel topping is gloriously golden brown and the sweet potato filling is set, approximately 20-30 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving. (Bake time: 30 minutes)
