How to Make Sweet Potato Casserole W Praline Topping

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Peel and cube sweet potatoes. Boil until tender (about 15-20 minutes).
  3. While sweet potatoes are boiling, prepare praline topping: In a saucepan over medium heat, combine brown sugar, butter, and cream. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until sugar dissolves.
  4. Stir in pecans and cook until mixture thickens slightly (about 2-3 minutes).
  5. Drain the cooked sweet potatoes and mash thoroughly.
  6. Stir in milk, eggs, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  7. Pour sweet potato mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
  8. Pour praline topping evenly over the sweet potato mixture.
  9. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until topping is golden brown and casserole is heated through.
