Ingredients:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For the Mashed Sweet Potatoes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4 large sweet potatoes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bd cup granulated sugar<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 teaspoon kosher salt<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 teaspoon vanilla extract<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2 large eggs<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bd cup unsalted butter, melted<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the streusel topping:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 cup light brown sugar, packed<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bd cup all-purpose flour<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 cup chopped pecans<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bd cup unsalted butter, melted<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PREPARATION:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cook sweet potatoes in desired manner, until soft. See notes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a 2 qt baking dish with nonstick spray (I use coconut oil spray). Set aside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a large bowl, combine cooked sweet potatoes, granulated sugar, salt, vanilla, eggs and melted butter. Beat with an electric mixer for about 4-5 minutes, until fluffy and smooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pour into prepared dish. Bake for 25 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While baking, prepare streusel topping by combining brown sugar, flour, pecans, and melted butter in a small bowl. Mix with a fork and set aside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sprinkle the baked sweet potato mixture with streusel and return to oven for about 10-15 minutes until crumble is lightly browned. Serve immediately or cover with foil and serve in 30 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Notes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the sweet potatoes you can cook them your favorite way. Bake in a 400 degree F oven for one hour. Or pierce with fork and microwave for 15 minutes (or more depending on size). Or peel and boil them for 30 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
