Streusel Sweet Potatoes image

*Adopted Recipe* This is a wonderful side dish from the Woman's Day Cookbook. I made these as a holiday side dish for the first time about 9 years ago, and they have been in regular rotation since. It looks gorgeous on the table, too.

  • Toss in pecans.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The potatoes were a little dry and the streusel topping was a bit bland.

I had some trouble getting the streusel topping to brown, but the potatoes were still delicious.

These sweet potatoes were a little too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them.

I loved the combination of sweet and savory in this dish. The streusel topping was the perfect complement to the roasted potatoes.

These sweet potatoes were a hit! The streusel topping was crispy and flavorful, and the potatoes were perfectly tender and sweet. I'll definitely be making this recipe again.
