This was so good it needs to be illegal. I did follow other reviewers suggestions and omit the sugar in the actual sweet potato mixture. If I hadn't, it would have been way too sweet. I did add a tbsp. of orange zest. The sweet potatoes were so fluffy. This was wonderful. A nice addition to my Easter table. (I wish my camera hadn't died this morning. This is a beautiful dish. This would be wonderful on an autumn themed dinner celebration.)

WOW! this hands down the best sweet potato bake ever! My family is still talking about it. We added a slight handfull of oats to the topping and it is to die for! Thanks for the great recipe.

Awesome recipe! I tried it out on my neighbors about a week before Thanksgiving and they loved it! So when I made it for both my husband's family and mine on Thanksgiving, everyone requested it for Christmas! I doubled the recipe and baked it in a 13X9 pan. Definitely a keeper!

I have been making this recipe for over 25 years and have passed down the prep chores to oldest daughter. It is always requested side dish, year after year! This is the perfect match for that special turkey or ham.

Had stacks of sweet potato once so I made this for a potluck dinner. Most people loved it and wanted the recipe but I didn't personally like it - something to do with the texture or flavour or something.

Awesome! I made it without the nuts, as my husband is allergic, and was worried that it would negatively affect the taste, but it was fantastic!

My family loves this. The only change I made was to not put any sugar in the sweet potatoes. We loved the topping, but if by chance you have leftovers, don't reheat it in the microwave. The topping gets soggy.

I usually panic when it comes to trying a new recipe especially for a group. But, this was so easy to do and turned out fabulous. Everyone loved it.

This was absolutely wonderful! I made this for thanksgiving and was a hit. I have tried other recipes that didn't quite cut it. This one was by far my favorite! I doubled the crumb toping, however. I love the topping! I made it in a 13x9 pan and turned out wonderful. This will definately be a traditional Thanksgiving recipe for our family!

This was just too sweet and mushy. We did not enjoy it at all. I made it for the holidays and no one touched it after the first bite.

I made this for holiday and wasn't impressed. No one really ate it. I will stick to traditional candy sweet potatos next year.

I made this recipe with my 10 yr.old granddaughter and she did most of it herself. It was fabulous!! It was gone before I barely got some!! Will definately make again. We cooked the sweeet potatoes from scratch but I am sure canned ones would work too. We like the freshness of raw ones. Fantastic side dish for any occasion. Thanks for the new family favorite.

Ok well I'm pretty disappointed in myself for not recognizing this recipe for what it is...not a dinner side dish but more of a dessert. I'm not really familiar with sweet potatoes and have only made them as fries or had them mashed. As I was making it I was thinking that it was a little strange for a regular side but when I tasted it I definatley knew...this tastes almost exactly like pumpkin pie! Although it wasn't what I had been expecting it was still good. I wouldn't make it for dinner again, but maybe for dessert.

Really good. My husband doesn't eat sweet potatoes and he liked it. My changes were to use 4 1/2 cups of potatoes, omit the white sugar entirely (sweet potatoes are already sweet) and use 1 1/2 T. of butter in the potato mixture instead of 3. I kept the topping as in the recipe. It's a flexible recipe. You could eat this for dessert.
