Praline Sweet Potato Bake

January 10, 2013

You can't really go wrong with a sweet potato. They are fabulous. But I have to say it is a toss up for my favorite way to eat them. This is one of my husband's favorite recipes and I thank my mother-in-law for sharing her recipe! It is a tradition for the holidays (especially Thanksgiving and Easter) as well as many other times throughout the year.

1 1/2 cups cold mashed sweet potato (about 3 medium sweet potatoes)
3 Tbsp milk
2 Tbsp brown sugar (I used light brown sugar this time, but my favorite is dark brown sugar)
2 Tbsp melted butter
1 egg
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/4 tsp kosher salt

Topping
3 Tbsp brown sugar
1 1/2 Tbsp flour
1 1/2 Tbsp butter, melted
3 Tbsp chopped pecans (scant 1/4 cup)

Preheat oven to 350 F. In a mixing bowl beat the sweet potatoes, milk, brown sugar, butter, egg, vanilla, and salt until fluffy. Transfer to a baking dish that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking...
