Time 1h15m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoons orange juice
2 tablespoons vanilla
1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice, divided
3 lbs sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed in 1-inch
4 tablespoons butter, divided
1/4 cup flour
1/2 cup chopped pecans
2 cups miniature marshmallows

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Mix 1/4 c brown sugar, orange juice and 1 tsp of pumpkin spice mix in a large bowl.
  • Add sweet potatoes, toss to coat.
  • Transfer to a 9X13 baking dish, dot with 2 tbsp butter.
  • Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 45 min until tender.

  • Stir in pecans and marshmallows.
  • Remove casserole from oven, stir gently to coat potatoes with syrup, top with marshmallow crumb topping.
  • Bake uncovered for another 7-10 min, or until potatoes are tender and topping golden brown.

Tips:

  • For the creamiest texture, use full-fat coconut milk. If you don't have any on hand, you can use a mixture of almond milk and heavy cream.
  • If you want a sweeter casserole, add more maple syrup or brown sugar. You can also add a pinch of salt to balance out the sweetness.
  • For a crispy topping, use a mixture of chopped pecans and oats. You can also use almond flour or crushed graham crackers.
  • Be sure to bake the casserole until the sweet potatoes are tender and the topping is golden brown. This usually takes about 45 minutes.
  • Let the casserole cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will help it set and make it easier to slice.
