For an even richer flavor, try using brown butter in the sweet potato mixture. To toast the pecans for the topping, spread them on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until fragrant. Let cool before chopping. This dish can be assembled ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator until ready to bake. Add about 10-15 minutes to the baking time if baking from cold. If you don't have pecans on hand, walnuts or almonds would also work well in the streusel topping. A splash of bourbon or rum can add a delightful warmth to the sweet potato mixture.
