Recipe Tips
1. For an extra crunch, add more chopped pecans to the topping mixture. 2. If you don't have a large pot to boil the sweet potatoes, you can also roast them in the oven. Simply peel and cube the sweet potatoes, toss them in a little olive oil, and roast at 400°F for 25-30 minutes, or until tender. 3. To make this recipe a little healthier, you can substitute the brown sugar with coconut sugar or maple syrup, and use coconut oil instead of butter.
