Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into large chunks. Boil them in a large pot of water until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.

Spread the sweet potato mixture evenly into the greased baking dish.

In a separate bowl, prepare the topping by combining the all-purpose flour, packed brown sugar, chopped pecans, and 5 tablespoons of melted butter. Mix until the mixture forms a crumbly texture.

Sprinkle the praline topping evenly over the sweet potato mixture.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden and crisp.
