How to Make Trisha's Sweet Potato Souffle

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large jelly roll pan with foil.
  2. Place cubed sweet potatoes on the prepared pan.
  3. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the potatoes are easily pierced with a fork.
  4. Remove from oven and let cool slightly until easy to handle. Peel and roughly chop the potatoes.
  5. Butter a 2- to 2 1/2-quart shallow baking dish.
  6. In a large bowl, beat the cooled sweet potatoes with an electric mixer on medium speed until completely smooth and creamy.
  7. Add eggs, 1 cup of granulated sugar, ½ cup of softened butter, milk, vanilla extract, and salt to the sweet potato mixture.
  8. Beat on medium speed until well combined and fluffy.
  9. Pour the sweet potato mixture into the prepared baking dish.
  10. In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup pecans, ½ cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup flour, and ½ cup of softened butter. Mix until crumbly.
  11. Sprinkle the pecan crumble evenly over the top of the sweet potato mixture.
  12. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly, covering loosely with foil if it browns too quickly.
  13. Let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
