This Sweet Potato Casserole recipe is a holiday favorite, and one that family counts on me to make every year. But sweet potatoes are so healthy and loaded with nutrients that I really should make this more often.
There are lots of variations of this traditional sweet potato casserole, but I think what you’ll like about mine is that it’s really easy to make. The sweet, crunchy sugary topping makes this eligible for the dessert table, but it’s always a winner no matter where you put it!
