Ingredients

Sweet Potato Casserole

  • 4 large sweet potatoes (peeled and chopped into large 1" pieces)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 tablespoons butter (cut into small chunks)
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Loaded Crumble Topping

  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter (cut into small chunks)
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/2 cup shredded sweetened coconut
  • 1/2 cup mini marshmallows

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • Place the peeled and chopped sweet potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil and let cook for about 20 minutes (possibly longer). You want the potatoes to be super soft. Drain potatoes in a colander when done cooking.
  • Add the sugar, butter pieces, and milk into the bottom of a large mixing bowl. Dump the drained and hot sweet potatoes on top. Use a handheld blender to beat the mixture until creamy and smooth.
  • Add in eggs, one at a time, beating after each egg.
  • Add nutmeg, cinnamon, salt, and vanilla extract. Blend together until everything is combined and potatoes are creamy and smooth. Evenly spread the sweet potatoes inside the prepared baking dish.
  • Make the crumble topping: In a small mixing bowl, stir together the flour and brown sugar. Add butter pieces and mix together with a pastry blender or your hands (hands are easier) until mixture resembles wet, coarse crumbs. Add pecans, coconut, and marshmallows. Stir together to combine. Sprinkle over the sweet potatoes.
  • Bake for 35-40 minutes. The top should be golden brown and edges bubbly.
  • Let cool for about 10 minutes before serving. Store leftovers, covered in the fridge, for up to 1 week.
