Why I Love This Recipe

Yet another variation on an ever-popular dish... I made this for a side dish/dessert at a barbeque potluck last fall, and it was a huge hit. The orange zest definitely adds a nice citrus flavor to the dish.

Ingredients You'll Need

3 large sweet potatoes
3 tablespoons butter, softened
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup chopped pecans
1 cup flaked coconut (optional)
1/3 cup all-purpose flour

2 eggs
1/4 cup milk
1 tablespoon grated orange zest
3 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt

2. Bake sweet potatoes for 1 hour. Let cool, then mash in a large bowl. There should be approximately 3 2/3 cups of mashed sweet potato.


3. Combine softened butter with brown sugar, nuts, coconut and flour; stir with a fork. Set aside.


4. Combine sugar, eggs, milk, orange peel, butter, vanilla, salt with the mashed sweet potatoes. Beat the mixture with an electric mixer until smooth. Pour mixture into prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the brown sugar-nut mixture over the top of the mixture.
