Sweet Potato Casserole

Here's a wonderful Thanksgiving recipe from a yoga instructor and friend, Tianna Hill.

This casserole was shared with me over 20 years ago and has been on our Thanksgiving table ever since. Warning....it is like having dessert on your plate and it is addicting! Enjoy!

Heat oven to 350 degrees.

Ingredients:
5 medium sweet potatoes (about 3 cups) boil and mash. Add to the sweet potatoes;
6 T butter (melted)
2 eggs (beaten)
1/2 C milk (we use rice or almond)
1/2 C dark brown sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
Mix until smooth. Pour mixture into a lightly buttered 11x7 dish and bake for 20 minutes.

Ingredients Topping:
1/2 C brown sugar
4 T flour
4 T butter (softened)
1 C chopped pecans
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp vanilla

Mix and crumble. Spread over the top of the baked sweet potatoes and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until the topping is crispy!
