Sweet Potato Casserole

November 26, 2019 Carrie
Sweet Potato Casserole with pecan and brown sugar topping.

Sweet potato casserole with a buttery pecan topping is a favorite side dish around our house all through the winter months - especially over the holidays. While the recipe leans toward a sweet potato pie, it is not that sweet. The base layer is savory and the sweetness comes from the pecan, brown sugar and butter topping. The recipe uses no flour, so it is gluten-free.

Squash casserole is a true old school southern recipe. Almost every family has a version. Traditionally, squash casserole is made with yellow crookneck squash but any type of squash will work. The result is a little like an au gratin and a little like a quiche.
