If you think you don’t like sweet potatoes, please—in the name of all that is good, holy, and fattening—give this a try. You’ll thank yourself!
Ingredients:
- 4 whole medium sweet potatoes
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup milk
- 2 whole eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup pecans
- ½ cups flour
- ¾ sticks butter
Instructions:
- Wash 4 medium sweet potatoes and bake them in a 375-degree oven until fork tender, about 30-35 minutes. When they are finished cooking slice them open and scrape out the flesh into a large bowl.
- Add 1 cup of (regular grandulated) sugar, 1 cup of milk, 2 eggs, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1 teaspoon of salt. With a potato masher, mash them up just enough—you don’t want to be perfectly smooth.
- Now, in a separate bowl, add 1 cup brown sugar, 1 cup pecans, chopped (that means measure a cup of pecans, then chop them), ½ cup flour, and ¾ stick of butter. With a pastry cutter or fork, mash together until thoroughly combined.
- Spread the sweet potato mixture into a regular baking dish and sprinkle the crumb mixture all over the top.
- Bake in a 400-degree oven for 30 minutes, or until golden brown.
