Thought this was way too sweet, and more like a dessert than a side dish with the crumb topping. It was very sweet and a little tangy, without any depth in flavor or spices. This would've passed more as a sweet potato pie or cobbler. It definitely needed more herbs or spices to make it a side dish. Candied yams have more depth of flavor, in my opinion, and the crumb topping just totally classified the dish as a dessert.

I'm not a fan of sweet potatoes but these are really good! I didn't change a thing, I used canned, and my brother brought over his sweet potatoes for thanksgiving too he made and they were real, and mine tasted much better! So save some time and used the canned ones!

Easy, nice texture. Broiling the marshmallows at the end worked well.

Very easy and very good. Everyone loved it. In all the chaos of Thanksgiving day I'm not sure if I did something wrong or not but, the topping (brown sugar) seemed a little dry and sort of out of place on the top. It didn't interfere with the taste and I did burn the marshmellows a little bit.

I like the baked sweet potatoes topped with marshmallows at this steak restaurant we go to, so I wanted to find something similar on a bigger scale for Thanksgiving. This recipe was what I was looking for. I used fresh potatoes--I've never cooked with sweet potatoes before so this was different. I used this new "brownulated" brown sugar instead of regular brown sugar--bad idea. I ended up not serving this with the meal because the potatoes were still not done. The next day I added more orange juice (maybe 1-1.5 Cups) and covered with foil and baked for another hour and a half--after all of THAT, the potatoes were done! The "brownulated" sugar was still grainy and the marshmallows melted in and disappeared but overall, it is a wonderful recipe that I hope to try again and hopefully it'll come out perfect.

This was just a little too sweet for our tastes. I probably won't make it again, unless I decrease the sugar next time.

I made this recipe for my family and my father in law. It was easy enough and pretty quick to whip together. I had to substitute some items but it still turned out pretty good. They seemed to like it (I don't like sweet potatoes myself.) My husband said the sweet potatoes could have been a little more "mushy" but my father in law had two helpings. He liked the topping and couldn't quite put his finger on what was in there - that always makes a good recipe!

Perfect sweet potatoes! Definitely do not drain the potatoes. I used an 8X8 pan, and I needed 3 15oz cans of sweet potatoes (and half again as much of the other ingredients, too.) Also be prepared when cutting in the butter that there is about as much butter as there is dry ingredients, and it turns into a very soft wet paste instead of a dry coarse texture like with pastry. It turns ot perfect, but it surprised me when I was making it and I was worried I had done something wrong. Nope - it turned out just great! I'll make it every year from now on!

My husband and I are not huge fans of sweet potato casserole, but we are in love with this recipe. I made it two weeks ago for a FCC Thanksgiving party and it was a hit with the kids. I plan on making it again tomorrow for Thanksgiving with all of our friends. Thanks for sharing the recipe with us.

We had my first Thanksgiving at my house early this weekend and my hubby asked for sweet potatoes and My hubby LOVED these!! He said they were better than his mother's.. this was the first time that I had made sweet potatoes and I was so proud of myself... I did leave out the oj because I forgot it at the grocery store in my hurriedness... So i drained the sweet potatoes into a bowl and then measured out the same amount in the syrup from the canned sweet potatoes.. thank you so much for this recipe!!!! This is our new thanksgiving recipe

I used this recipe for the my first attempt at sweet potatoes. And they turned out perfectly. I am not a fan of sweet potatoes, but my family loves them. I thought they were the best and will make them again next Thanksgiving.
