Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Sweet potatoes
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Brown sugar
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter (for topping)
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into large chunks. Place them into a large pot of water and bring to a boil. Cook for 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
Drain the sweet potatoes and transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Mash them until smooth using a potato masher or hand mixer.
To the mashed sweet potatoes, add 6 tablespoons of unsalted butter, granulated sugar, milk, vanilla extract, and eggs. Mix until fully combined and smooth.
Pour the sweet potato mixture into the prepared baking dish and smooth out the top with a spatula.
In a medium bowl, prepare the streusel topping by combining the flour, brown sugar, 6 tablespoons of unsalted butter (softened), and ground cinnamon. Use a fork or your fingers to mix until crumbly.
Evenly sprinkle the streusel topping over the sweet potato layer in the baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and slightly crisp.
Remove from the oven and allow the casserole to rest for 5 minutes. Serve warm and enjoy!
