Tips:

  • Use fresh sweet potatoes: Fresh sweet potatoes will have a more vibrant flavor and texture than store-bought, pre-cooked sweet potatoes.
  • Roast the sweet potatoes: Roasting the sweet potatoes will help to caramelize the natural sugars and give them a slightly smoky flavor.
  • Use a variety of spices: A combination of spices, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger, will give the casserole a warm and inviting flavor.
  • Don't overcook the casserole: The casserole is done when the sweet potatoes are tender but still hold their shape.
  • Serve the casserole warm: The casserole is best served warm, with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
