Sweet potatoes are one of my favorite vegetables, or foods in general really. I eat them all year round but in the Fall I go a little crazy with them. They are probably my very favorite side dish at holiday dinners and I look forward to filling at least half of my plate with whatever variety of sweet potatoes is being served. At my house, it’s either my famous candied pecan sweet potato casserole, or these amazing (and brand new!) baked southern candied sweet potatoes. If you are a fan of sweet potatoes, you can’t go wrong with either.
My candied pecan sweet potato casserole has a lot of the same ingredients but the sweet potatoes are mashed, the pecans are even sweeter, and there is a third layer of toasted marshmallows on top. This version is a little more traditional with half-moon potatoes and no marshmallows. It is a breeze to make with just a few simple ingredients and it makes the perfect side dish for any holiday meal!
