Zubereitung von Southern Praline Sweet Potato Casserole
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Pierce 4 large sweet potatoes (about 2 lbs total) several times with a fork. Place on a baking sheet.
- Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until potatoes are easily pierced with a fork.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely.
- While potatoes bake, prepare the milk mixture: In a small saucepan, heat 1/2 cup milk and 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat until hot but not boiling. Set aside, keeping warm.
- Once cool enough to handle, cut the potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides into a large mixing bowl. Discard the skins.
- Mash the sweet potatoes thoroughly using a potato masher or electric mixer.
- Stir in the warm milk mixture into the mashed potatoes.
- Add 2 large eggs and beat until well combined.
- Stir in 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar.
- Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with butter.
- Spread the sweet potato mixture evenly into the prepared dish.
- Prepare the praline topping: Melt 1/2 cup butter in a medium saucepan over low heat.
- Stir in 1 cup packed light brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/2 cup heavy cream.
- Add 1 cup pecan halves.
- Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens (5-7 minutes).
- Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Pour the praline topping evenly over the sweet potato mixture.
- Spread with a spatula to ensure even coverage.
- Bake for 30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the casserole is heated through.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
