Pecan Sweet Potato Casserole
SUBMITTED BY:
Tina Browning
"Creamy sweet potatoes are treated to a brown-sugar-and-pecan topping in this pared-down casserole. I like to double the recipe for my company's Thanksgiving potluck, Tina Browning writes from Lehigh Acres, Florida. Everyone loves it."

These are great Sweet Potato's for the holidays. I have even used mini pumpkins as baking dish and stuffed them with this recipe for little individual sevings or used a large pumpkin as the baking dish for a little extra effect!

I upped the recipe to serve 12 for a Thanksgiving potluck. Results were great and the host and hostess were more than happy to keep the little that was left!

This was just ok, it may just be me though. This is the first sweet potato casserole I've ever had and wasn't sure if I was going to like it because I'm not a sweet potato fan. But since this recipe made a really small portion instead of a 9x13 I gave my tastebuds another go and it just wasn't for me.

I have made this recipe at least 3 times now and love it so much that we are having it for Xmas dinner. Even my family members who don't have a sweet tooth love it. I have a sweet tooth and particularly love the topping, but the casserole itself doesn't taste too sugary. I do reduce the sugar the recipe calls for slightly, but it would probably be fine if you use the full amount.

This recipe was a hit with the whole family! I had a hard time finding pecans so instead i used a salad topping mixture of cranberries and pecans! It was awesome! I also added a bit of brown sugar to the potatoes themselves, not just in the topping.

This is a great recipe that can be doubled, tripled or more. Plus it is good enough for dessert!

Sooo delicious and I'm not even a sweet potato fan! This side dish went great with my Valentines Dinner of Smothered Filet Mignon and Never Enough Green Bean Casserole (both on this site). Will make again. Thanks for the recipe!
