Ingredients

3 cups cooked mashed sweet potatoes (this is about 3 medium potatoes)
1 cup sugar
1 tsp real salt
1 tsp vanilla
½ cup milk
2 eggs beaten
¼ tsp real cinnamon (optional)
⅛ tsp ground cloves more or less to taste (optional)
¼ cup unsalted butter cut into chunks

Topping

2 cups brown sugar
⅔ cups unsalted butter, melted
¼ cup flour
⅔ cup oatmeal
¾ cup chopped pecans

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350
Butter the casserole dish you want to use - I use a 9 x 13 glass pan.
Beat sweet potatoes in mixer until smooth. Pause to remove any strings that cling to the mixer attachment.
Add all the other ingredients and blend well.

Topping

Melt butter and put it into a medium bowl.
Add all of the other ingredients and blend well.
Sprinkle/spread all of it over top of casserole.
Bake for 20 - 30 minutes until brown on top and it's bubbling in middle.
Top with marshmallows or marshmallow cream the last 10 minutes of baking for a little lagniappe.

Notes

All of my ingredients are non-gmo, organic and/or raised here on the farm.
