Instructions
Peel and wash your sweet potatoes first before making the sweet potato casserole. Chop them into small pieces.
Place your sweet potatoes in a medium pot with water and cook over medium heat until tender. While the sweet potatoes are cooking, preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Drain the sweet potatoes and mash them with a potato masher or with a hand mixer on low.
Combine the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, brown sugar, vanilla extract, white sugar, milk, salt, and eggs. Beat on low speed until well combined.
In a greased casserole dish, pour the mixture. Remove from heat. Add 3 tablespoons butter and 1/3 cup brown sugar to a small pan. Whisk until well combined over medium heat.
Sprinkle pecans on top and then add brown sugar and butter to the casserole. Put it in the oven and bake for about 30 minutes at 350 degrees.
