This Sweet Potato Casserole with Pecan Topping is creamy, crunchy, toasty, and so divine. So decadent it almost tastes like dessert.
The Perfect Thanksgiving Side Dish
This Sweet Potato Casserole with Pecan Topping is the best sweet potato casserole recipe I’ve ever tried! It’s a Thanksgiving favorite that always stands out on our holiday table. The creamy, whipped sweet potatoes are topped with a delicious pecan coconut crumble, making it so good it could pass as dessert. Plus, the topping is versatile – you can easily customize it to suit your guests’ preferences.
Ingredients for Sweet Potato Casserole
Let’s start with the base of this dish – the sweet potato mixture. It’s easy, made with real ingredients, and absolutely delicious! Here’s what you need:
- Sweet potatoes – You can use canned sweet potatoes or about 3 ½ cups cooked and mashed sweet potatoes. If you like it more chunky use a potato masher. Use an electric mixer for a creamier, whipped texture.
- Milk – Any type will work.
- Brown sugar – Dark or light brown works great
- Butter – Melted, I prefer unsalted butter.
- Egg – Slightly beaten (large to extra large eggs).
- Vanilla extract – A teaspoon will do.
- Salt – Half a teaspoon or to taste.
Sweet Potato Casserole Pecan Topping
The toasted coconut and pecan topping transforms this sweet potato casserole into a show-stopping dish. It’s easy to make and adds the perfect crunch, perfectly complementing the creamy sweet potatoes. Once you try it, you’ll never go back to marshmallows! The ingredients you’ll need for the topping include:
- Brown sugar
- Chopped pecans
- Shredded coconut
- Flour
- Melted butter
Frequently Asked Questions About Sweet Potato Casserole
Yes, canned candied yams sold in U.S. grocery stores are actually sweet potatoes. This is what we use in this recipe. True yams and sweet potatoes are different in color, taste, and texture. Fun fact: Over 50% of U.S. sweet potatoes grown are grown in North Carolina.
Yes! This is good news for those of you hosting Thanksgiving this year. Assemble your casserole ahead of time, chill in the refrigerator, then bake the day of. It will be delicious!
Refrigerate sweet potato casserole to keep it fresh. Store it in the fridge for up to five days. If the casserole sits out for more than a couple of hours, it should be discarded, so be sure to store the leftovers promptly!
Sweet Potato Casserole without the topping is gluten-free. To make this recipe with the crumbly topping gluten-free, substitute coconut flour, rice flour, or any other favorite gluten-free flour mixture in place of the white flour.

How to Make Sweet Potato Casserole with Pecan Topping
Sweet Potato Casserole with Pecan Topping
Video
Ingredients
- 29 ounces sweet potatoes drained (or 3 ½ cups cooked and mashed sweet potatoes)
- ¼ cup milk
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons butter melted
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Topping
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup pecans chopped
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 3 tablespoons butter melted
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl or mixer, combine sweet potatoes, milk, brown sugar, melted butter, egg, vanilla, and salt. Beat ingredients with a hand mixer (or in a mixer) until the sweet potatoes are light and fluffy.
- Transfer sweet potato mixture into a greased 9×9 inch baking pan.
- Stir all of the topping ingredients together in a small bowl.
- Sprinkle the topping evenly over the sweet potatoes.
- Bake uncovered for 35 minutes.
Notes
Recipe Tips
- Sweet potatoes or yams can be used in place of the canned sweet potatoes in this recipe. Peel and dice the sweet potatoes, then boil them until fork tender. Mash them with a little milk to reach your desired consistency, then follow the recipe instructions as written.
- We recommend using a hand or stand mixer when blending the sweet potato mixture to get a light, airy texture. Be sure to mix until it is completely blended – no chunks!
- This recipe can be double and cooked in a 9×13 baking pan to serve 12-15 people.
- To reheat this casserole, warm it in the oven at 350 degrees until warmed through – about 20 minutes. If you put it in the microwave, the pecans will become soft and you won’t get that good crunch.
Best sweet potato casserole ever!!! This will ne the only way I’m going to make sweet potato casserole from now on!!!
I agree! I’m so happy you enjoyed it! 🙂
I am kinda upset right now! Just made this and my crumble didn’t come out properly because in the directions it says MELTED BUTTER, but yet the video shows her using it NOT MELTED for the topping 😪😪
Thank you for letting us know about the discrepancy with the video, Nicole. I’m not sure why your topping didn’t turn out right. The butter should be melted, this makes it easy to spread over the sweet potato filling. I’ve made it this way for years and it is everyone’s favorite dish. The topping will also turn out fine if the butter is not melted, it will just be a little more clumpy as you add it to the filling before cooking. Both ways, the topping is crumbly and delicious.
We cook this every Christmas, Easter and Thanksgiving. Never have any leftovers. I would like to know if it can be prepared and frozen? Thawed and warmed a week or so later? Sometimes we travel by car at Christmas and would like to take this dish with us.
This can be made ahead and frozen. For the best results, freeze the filling and topping separately. Prepare the sweet potato mixture according to the recipe directions up to the point of baking. Transfer to a freezer-safe casserole dish. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and then cover it with foil. Prepare the topping according to the recipe and place it in a freezer Ziplock bag. Thaw both for 24 hours in the refrigerator. Add the topping to the casserole just before baking. Thank you for asking, Rick. Happy Holidays!
Can this be prepared and then frozen. Thaw then cook? Or is it better to prepare, cook and then freeze, thaw and warm up?
Thank you for asking, Tricia. The answer to your question is prepare, freeze, thaw, then bake. IMPORTANT: Freeze the filling and the topping separately for best results. Prepare the sweet potato mixture, transfer to a freezer safe casserole dish, wrap tightly in plastic wrap and then foil to freeze. Prepare the topping and transfer to a freezer safe plastic bag (Ziplock). Thaw both in the fridge 24 hours. Add the topping to the casserole dish just before baking.
Most sweet potato dishes seem boringly similar. This one provides a few interesting surprises with coconut and pecans. Delicious!
Love this casserole. Goes well with everything.
I have made this casserole for the last couple of years & each time I’m asked to double the recipe. It’s the only way I make sweet potatoes for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Yes, it’s THAT yummy!

I’m the only one in our family that isn’t fond of sweet potato casserole; it’s just not something I grew up with. However, my hubby and everyone else LOVES this recipe so it’s a keeper.
Awesome casserole! The pecans are a wonderful addition and take sweet potatoes to the next level.
This is a family favorite. We can’t have Thanksgiving without it.
This sounds PERFECT for the Thanksgiving Potluck at Church next Sunday.
I am going to bake in cupcake pan and top the cupcakes.

Love a mashed sweet potato casserole with nuts!
OMG, this looks soooo good! I really want to try this recipe for TG this year. My husband doesn’t like change and makes his marshmallow version every year. I just might make it anyway and see how it goes.
I was a marshmallow fan for years myself, but I’ve never gone back. Good luck!
Definitely everyone’s favorite!! Simple and so tasty!
Love this spin on sweet potato casserole. Creamy ,great taste and the crunchy pecan and coconut topping is a hit. No need for marshmallows.

I steamed my sweet potatoes. Just some thing J learned years ago in Alabama. This recipe is absolutely mouth watering! Thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you for sharing! Happy Thanksgiving!
Great recipe! Topping really sets off this dish. It is one that will be the most requested.
My family absolutely loves this! I make it for Thanksgiving and Christmas and there is always an empty pan when all my guests leave. Very easy to make and super delicious 😋
Thank you, Carla! Happy Thanksgiving!
Yummy and delicious. This is a family favorite for the holidays.
I love sweet potatoe casserole but not with marshmallows. This recipe meets my hunger for it. Thanks for a great and tasty recipe
I have always wanted to try and make sweet potato casserole but thought you had to use fresh sweet potatoes. I will try making this year using canned sweet potatoes, thank you!
Not a huge fan of sweet potato casserole but this sounds really good
Our 7 month old loves sweet potatoes. This was a great recipe to introduce him too.
My family requests this recipe every year. Delish!
What can I say but it’s a side dish that tastes like an awesome dessert!!!! People who would usually pass on this want more when they taste it then you wished you made more! No leftovers on this dish!!!
My mom first requested did I make this particular recipe and I thought wow, sweet potatoes cannot get any better than this! It is now a staple every year at Thanksgiving and Christmas. I reduced the sugar in half and really enjoy the flavor. Mom says she is in heaven every time she eats it! Enjoy!
Yummy, my very favorite cant wait for my family to try this
Made this for my wife and she loved it, I’m not a fan of sweet potatoes and coconut. This is the rating she would give it.
This by far is my family’s favorite dish! My husband could eat the whole pan of it, I tell him to save some for the rest of us..
This was a hit last Thanksgiving! I’ll be making it again this year. Delish!
This looks so delicious! I think I’ll give it a try.
This is a favorite of mine, I often serve it to guests and they love it. If I don’t have sweet potatoes, I will use butternut squash with the same results.
Thanks for sharing this recipe!
delicious, great recipe to make a favorite dish,
Soooooo good! I had fresh sweet potatoes so I mashed them. Everybody loved it! (Except my nephew who doesn’t like anything). Happy Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving to you, Gerry!
IT IS DELICIOUS AND JSUT THE PERFECT AMOUNT OF CRUNCH. SIMPLY DIVINE
Thank you, Margaret!
Have been looking for a sweet potato casserole without marshmallows. This recipe really caught my eye. With the crunchy topping , that will put this casserole right over the top. Will definitely be serving this for Thanksgiving.
Delicious! Crunchy topping, smooth interior
This recipe sounds amazing, definitely will be trying it.
Delicious and will become a favorite family tradition for the holidays!
I love this recipe for Sweet Potato Casserole. It is easy to follow quite to put together and it tastes great. My only complaint is there are never any leftovers.
Impressive side dish over simple mashed sweet potatoes. The pecan coconut topping is a wonderful addition.
Creamy texture with a little crunch. Mildly sweet and easy to make. Family loves it.
You are right my family treats this like a desert. They prefer this over pumkin pie.
This is the perfect addition to our feast!
We love this recipe, I do leave out pecans for half of recipe, some do not like nuts, we love the ease of this recipe!
Sweet and crunchy. This is so delicious!
So simply and so good
This is the best recipe I have seen yet! The potatoes come out so fluffy and light with a tough of sweetness that pairs so well with the savory. The coconut in the topping is a bit of surprise and adds a bit more texture. Altogether, if I could give this more stars I would!
Thank you, Trish!
Love the recipe. My kids don’t like coconut so I use marshmallows and use candied pecans. We love sweet potatoes in our house. Delicious’n
Great recipe so yummy and easy
Sorry I did not rate this before but definitely give it a 5 star and then some
Oh my!
Thanksgiving dinner is going to be huge Huge Texas fantastic! My people are going to flip over this new sweet potato recipe! We are all so tired of the marshmallow sweet potato dish that I make year after year!
Delicious!! I loved this recipe, it was a hit!
Love sweet potatoes and this looks like a very good recipe. Anxious to try
This recipe looks fantastic! Why do we not eat sweet potato casserole all year long? This recipe might get us to have it on a regular basis.
Great recipe! It’s been in my family for years. I didn’t add the coconut. Maybe one day
I’ve tried this recipe before. It is 💯 absolutely fantastic. It’s better than eating dessert…….in fact it is a dessert. It is not an exaggeration when I say I could simply have this casserole as the main course of any meal including Thanksgiving. If you don’t whip up a batch of these sweet ‘taters, you are missing something special.
Thank you, Jimmy! Happy Thanksgiving!
I love, love, love Sweet Potato Casserole. I grew up with having marshmallows on top, but when this recipe came out, I quickly switched to this delicious topping. I do not like to eat my sweet potatoes with my meal. I prefer to have them after my meal. I also save the topping to eat last. I have some quirky eating habits.
That’s actually a great idea. They are more like dessert anyway. Happy Thanksgiving!
I have never added coconut to the topping before but I will be making this for Thanksgiving this year using this recipe. Thank you!
This recipe sounds so good I will be adding this to the Thanksgiving Dinner the best part of this is how easy it is to make, I am sure my family is going to love this dish
I like the taste of the mixture
This recipe is delicious! Everyone but my husband loves sweet potatoes, and even he said it was really good!
Absolutely love this Sweet potatoe casserole. My favorite way to make them for Thanksgiving.
Forgot my star rating! This is absolutely excellent!
This is the best sweet potato dish ever. It is delicious. Also very easy to make. I added it to my favorites. I did not change a thing, followed the recipe as written.
always looking for new ways to serve the sweets! love them even more than white taters! Happy Holidays!
Happy Thanksgiving to you!
I love this recipe. I made it as a “trial run” to see if it would be good for the family get-together. My brother in law who hates sweet potatoes tried them. ( I didn’t tell him before what it was.) Turns out he loved them. His face when he found out he loved sweet potatoes was priceless.
That is amazing! I’m glad the recipe was a success!
This was delicious I give it 5 stars!!!
Sweet potato casserole is my favorite!
My family lives this recipe! It’s a tradition💕
this is easy to make vegan, and so delish it could be dessert.
This is always a special dish for any occasion. I add a couple
tablespoons of Sherry flavoring to the sweet potato and it is
really delicious.
My friends raved about this casserole. I used more more sweet potatoes, otherwise I followed to the letter. It was delicious!
I make this casserole another using two eggs cinnamon ! Everyone requests this recipe
I love that is so easy to make and so delicios. Even the pickiest eaters love it.
What kind of coconut did you use, sweetened or unsweetened?
Sweetened, but you can use unsweetened if you want. The brown sugar gives plenty of sweet. Thanks for asking!
Yum! Thank you so much, love all ur recipes!
This sounds really good. I just can’t seem to make good ones. My mom always makes the best sweet potatoes. This looks like hers.
This is an easy sweet potato recipe. I love sweet potatoes and this is a great holiday recipe.
that is delicious! im gonna make it soon too
This recipe is the best I have ever tasted. My late mother made this recipe for many years while I was growing up and it was awesome. I occasionally make this recipe throughout the year, not just Thanksgiving or Christmas. It is very easy to prepare and I had a lot of fun doing this casserole. It simply cannot be beat!
This is my favorite. Sadly, I am the only one that likes sweet potatoes. More for ME
I never thought of using coconut with sweet potatoes, but I’m gonna try this recipe out. Sounds delicious.
I never thought of using coconut with sweet potatoes, but I’m gonna try this recipe out. Sounds delicious.
This looks like a winner for sweet potato lovers.
Sounds scrumptious. I am going to use this recipe this Thanksgiving. My husband loves homemade sweet potato casserole, so I’m going to give this one a try. May become my go to recipe every time.
My family loves coconut. This was so delicious and easy to make. Thank you for the delicious recipe.
This is by far my favorite Thanksgiving side dish! I also like to switch up the toppings. I can’t wait to make and eat this next week!
I would give this recipe five star rating it was really delicious and I will make it again
Absolutely delicious, it was my first time tasting it and fell in love right away, will definitely be making this for Christmas dinner.
Thank you for the tips, very unique.
This sounds delish! something with a new twist to get the oooh and awww’s out of my guests.
This recipe is delicious!! I never thought to add eggs or coconut. I love coconut-this added another layer of flavor. This is the best recipe for sweet potatoes I have ever made & easy also! Make it, you won’t be sorry!!
This recipe is delicious and is easy to follow. I will for sure be keeping this one in my favorites.
This sounds so delicious
.sweet potatoes is one of my favorite dishes, It looks delicious and easy to make. I will make ikt

I have always wanted to make a sweet potato dish (casserole) this sounds delicious and very simple. I will have to try yours.
Great recipe. I will be making this soon.
With this delicious casserole, I really don’t need a dessert. It satisfies the sweet tooth. Everyone just loves this dish and always goes for seconds.
This is such a different way to make sweet potato casserole but it works so well. I love coconut so it already sounded good before making it. But it’s delicious.
Love this recipe it’s crunchy sweet & delicious 5 stars
I love this easy (tastes great, too) recipe. Love, love the topping. It makes the dish really stand out.
This recipe is amazing! This is the one recipe everyone insists be on repeat every Thanksgiving.
I loved the topping & creamy filling together to make a delicious & yummy taste!!
I like the idea of a streusel topping. It brings texture to the dish. Not that I don’t like marshmallows but I always like something with a little crunch to break up all the softness with the traditional sweet potato casserole. I also like the tip about reheating the casserole in the oven to keep the integrity of the nuts!
Candied Sweet Potato casserole has been my favorite since I was old enough to eat it ( many, many, moons ago), and that love was acquired by my son as well. While we do love the “traditional” recipe, I am always interested in trying a new or different version of this age old classic! This looks like this year’s taste test winner!!!
We love sweet potato casserole in our household! This recipe sounds amazing!
Sweet potato casserole is yummy, you make it just like my family’s recipe. No marshmallows is the right answer! Sweet potato casserole and turkey is the way to go! yum!
Sweet potato casserole is delish, you make it just like my family’s recipe. No marshmallows is the right answer! Sweet potato casserole and turkey is the way to go! yum!
My family loves this recipe! It’s always on the menu for Thanksgiving.
My two favorite foods in one dish…is the sweet potato casserole, don’t keep it for just holiday meals.
I have a couple of family members who don’t like sweet potatoes at all, but they liked this recipe. This will be on our Thanksgiving menu every year.
I love the crunchy streusel topping. The sweet potatoes are perfect with this topping because it takes them up to the next level!
This recipe is so so good. I make it as a dessert to be served with whipped topping or vanilla ice cream. We have a well known restaurant here that I fell in love with their aweet potatoes casserole. When I first got this recipe I was very pleased that now I could make the same celebrated dish . It is so addictive.
A excellent and easy to follow receipe. I’m going to try this Thanksgiving.
I love Sweet Potato Casserole. When I was growing up, it was always topped with marshmallows and browned under the broiler. The first time I had Sweet Potato Casserole with the pecans/butter/brown sugar/etc. topping, I thought I had died and gone to Heaven! I like to eat it as a dessert!
Delicious recipe. It’s my son’s favorite side dish.
We have used this recipe forc51 years. We add 1 cup of pecans candied.
Yummy!
One of our families favorite! Yummy!
Great recipe
So yummy!!!! Must try for the Holidays!!!
Literally my all time favorite thanksgiving dish!! Love this recipe!
Love the simplicity of this recipe and the fact that you can change up the topping if needed. Great tips are included as well. Definitely adding this to my Thanksgiving table!
I love to try new things for Thanksgiving, and the sweet potato casserole is the perfect dish to try; can’t mess around too much with the family faves! This sounds delicious.
Am diabetic and this is pretty high sugar; but, I think I will try anyway. I love sweet potatoes, but never tried them in casserole. I think I’ll love it.
This sounds so yummy and easy! Im going to try it!!
This recipe is super, even if you don’t like sweet potatoes, you will love this one
The creamiest and the little crunch is heavenly
You won’t be able to stop eating them
We’ve made this so many years it’s considered a family tradition
My sweet grandmother made something similar to this recipe which was made with her love for all her family and Im looking forward to making this for Thanksgiving in honor of her
I’m making the sweet potato casserole for our Thanksgiving coming up. 5 stars
I’ve served a similar style dish every year for Thanksgiving and Christmas for most of my adult life but came across this version and had to try it out and it’s just what my dish needed to give it the extra kick.
I haven’t actually made this recipe but have made one very similar. Topping has crushed corn flakes, melted butter, brown sugar and chopped nuts. I much prefer this topping compared to marshmallows!
I love a yummy Sweet Potato Casserole! Thanks!
Can’t wait to try this for Thanksgiving, yum!
I’m normally not a fan of sweet potatoes, but this is one recipe that I will definitely make again. Thank you for helping me expand my food horizons 😉
Delicious recipe
This is definitely the favorite of our holiday meals. I am requested to make Sweet Potato Casserole every year. This is going to be the 1st year trying this one with the coconut pecan topping and we can’t wait!!
I should have said to add cream cheese and cinnamon to the potato mixture
Up the taste by adding cream cheese and cinnamon
Less sugar than my family recipe (I’m diabetic), but still absolutely fantastic! It was a big hit for Thanksgiving!
Absolutely delicious! No more marshmallows for us! The topping on this was the best thing ever!
This is the same recipe my husband’s Aunt gave to me after she brought her amazing sweet potato casserole to my first Thanksgiving with his family almost 20 years ago. The only thing I do differently is I add Rice Krispies to the topping mix. It doesn’t have a taste, it just adds to the crunch in combination with the coconut. This dish is my family’s favorite and a Thanksgiving and Christmas Day staple at our dinner table.
Hmmm… I’ve never heard of adding Rice Krispies to the topping mix. Interesting! I’m making this for Christmas dinner. I’ll give it a try!
Loved the coconut topping on this! Was a nice switch up from marshmallows.
OMG, yes please. We love sweet potatoes at home. Thanks for this recipe.
My family is going to love this! The flavors are perfect and I can’t wait to try this recipe!
This looks absolutely delish, just in time for Thanksgiving next week!
I’ve never had coconut on sweet potatoes before but can already picture how delicious a combination would be! yum! thanks so much for this inspiration!
Hi, I need to make it vegetarian, so what can I use instead of the egg or it will be fine without the egg? Thank you!
The egg acts as a binding agent, so you will want to substitute it. You can use mashed banana or nut butter!
Excellent dish. I added a tiny bit more of vanilla and was delicious. Easy to prepare dessert.
The flavors of this recipe are so warm and comforting. I love that it has coconut too!
I wasn’t very familiar with these ingredients, and that’s why I decided to try your recipe, I really love to indulge to myself into something new in the kitchen.
Well, it has been a real success for me and I’ll keep to make it.
I have only reduced the doses for 4 people, next time I will make a bigger one!
Thanks for sharing it
I love homemade sweet potato casserole. You have made it look so delicious to make. I think I would eat the whole casserole dish, lol.
You are going to be crazy about it! It’s my favorite!
Oh my goodness! This looks amazing. I am eager to get this on our holiday table!
This is such a delicious sweet potato recipe. The family loves it. It is easy to prepare and the coconut topping, delish!
So glad you liked it! So much better than a marshmallow topping, right??
Sweetened or unsweetened coconut?
Sweetened!
For the make ahead option, do you cook the casserole in the oven then put in refrigerator and just reheat day of? Or do you just assemble the casserole but wait to bake it until day of?
We usually just assemble the casserole and then bake the day of. Hope this helps!
This looks absolutely delicious! I’m putting on our Thanksgiving menu.
Thanks so much for all your delicious recipes!!
This recipe is fabulous. I made it for Thanksgiving for just the 3 of us. I used 2 sweet potatoes that I cooked in the microwave first. I made it again today, but I used the canned sweet potates. It’s baking right now. I’m sure when we can have family gatherings again I will make it for the whole family.
