For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the sweet potato mixture.
If you don't have pecans, walnuts or other nuts will work well in the crumble topping.
To make ahead, assemble the casserole but do not bake. Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Add 10-15 minutes to the baking time if baking from cold.
Ensure the sweet potatoes are well-drained after boiling to avoid a soggy bake.

    I've made this twice now, and it's become a family favorite. I added a little maple syrup to the sweet potato mixture for an even deeper flavor.

    Easy to follow and delicious! I used walnuts instead of pecans, and it turned out great.
