Answer 1

Sweet Potato Casserole

2 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes (about 3 large), scrubbed
2 large eggs, lightly beaten with a fork
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted plus more for the preparing the pan
2 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
Freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup coarsely chopped pecans

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Put the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet and pierce each one 2 or 3 times with a fork. Bake for 45 to 60 minutes or until tender. Set aside to cool.
Turn the oven down to 350 degrees F. Scoop the sweet potato out of their skins and into a medium bowl. Discard the skins. Mash the potatoes until smooth. Add the eggs, butter, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and pepper to taste. Whisk the mixture until smooth.

Butter an 8 by 8-inch casserole. Pour the sweet potato mixture into the pan and sprinkle the top with the pecans. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes until a bit puffy. Serve immediately.

Really simple. If you're not going to use canned. Boil up some sweet potatoes, about 10 if your doing two, until they're soft. Scrape them out of their skins and put unto a bowl to mash them up. I like to add ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground gloves, a little brown sugar, a little heavy cream and zest from an orange. Mix it all together and throw it in a casserole dish, dot the top with pads of butter, then top with marshmellows. If you want the yummy pecan topping, cut together about 4 tablespoons of butter and 1/4 cup of firmly backed brown sugar (cutting is using two knives to incorporate the ingredients). Then once its combined add about 1 cup of roughly chopped pecans or walnuts...or both! If you're using a large pan you may want to double the topping recipe. Bake at 375 for about 25 minutes. The potatoes are already cooked so you just need to let it get hot.

Butter Pecan Sweet Potatoes

8 med. sweet potatoes (5 lbs.)
2 Tbsp. olive oil
Kosher salt
2 Tbsp. cold butter, cut into small pieces
2 Tbsp. light brown sugar
1/3 cup pecans
1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper

Preheat oven to 400ºF. Peel potatoes. Halve lengthwise, slice crosswise into ½” thick slices. On a baking sheet, toss potatoes w/ olive oil and salt. Transfer half the potatoes to a 2nd baking sheet. Bake until tender about 25-35 min., tossing occasionally. Toss potatoes with butter, brown sugar, pecans, and cayenne pepper, dividing evenly between both baking sheets. Bake again until sugar is caramelized and hard, about 10 minutes. Gently toss and serve. Serves 8.

Here's my mom's sweet potato casserole. The photo is one she made for Thanksgiving.

It's the absolute best one I've ever tried. Folks go wild for it when she takes it to pot luck dinners.

This is the kind with the sugar and nuts on top.
