Notes
- You can substitute fresh sweet potatoes for the canned sweet potatoes if you prefer. Just peel and cook the sweet potatoes until they are tender, then mash them before using them in the recipe. - If you want to make the casserole ahead of time, you can prepare it up until step 5 and then cover it with plastic wrap and refrigerate it overnight. When you're ready to bake it, remove the plastic wrap and let the casserole come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before baking.
- If you don't have pecans, you can use walnuts or almonds instead. - You can use a food processor to chop the pecans quickly and easily. - For a more indulgent version of this recipe, you can add mini marshmallows to the top of the casserole during the last 5 minutes of baking. Just be sure to keep an eye on it to make sure the marshmallows don't burn.
