Ingredients

• 4 medium Sweet potatoes
• 1 cup Butter
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Milk
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.33 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Brown sugar
• 1 cup Chopped pecans
• 0.5 cup Butter (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

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

Step 3

Mash the sweet potatoes in a large mixing bowl until smooth. Add 1 cup of butter, granulated sugar, milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix well until fully combined.

Step 4

Pour the sweet potato mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.

Step 5

For the topping, mix together the all-purpose flour, brown sugar, and chopped pecans in a medium bowl. Cut in the 1/2 cup of butter with a fork or pastry blender until the mixture is crumbly.

Step 6

Sprinkle the pecan topping mixture evenly over the sweet potato layer.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the edges are bubbling slightly.

Step 8

Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Serve warm and enjoy!
