Sweet Potato Casserole

Sweet Potato Casserole

3 cups cooked and mashed red sweet potatoes
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
2 eggs
1/3 cube of butter (softened)
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla

Mix together the above ingredients and place them in a greased baking dish.

Topping:
1 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup flour
1/3 cube butter (softened)
1 cup chopped pecans

Mix together and sprinkle over the top of the casserole.  Bake 350 for 35-45 minutes.  I like to make 1 1/2 x the crumb topping.  I like a large nut to casserole ratio!

Notes:  I peeled and cut two very large sweet potatoes into about 2 inch chunks and cooked them in a mesh strainer/steam basket on high pressure in my Instant Pot for 5 mins, did a quick release, drained the water and used a hand mixer to mash them.  This ended up being almost exactly 3 cups of mashed sweet potatoes.
