Ingredients

  • 2 cans (29 oz each) sweet potatoes in syrup, drained, mashed (about 4 cups)
  • 1/3 cup butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
  • 2 eggs, slightly beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/3 cup whipping cream
  • 3/4 cup chopped pecans
  • 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted

Steps

  • 1
    Spray 3 1/2-quart slow cooker with cooking spray. In large bowl, beat sweet potatoes, 1/3 cup butter, the granulated sugar, 3 tablespoons brown sugar, the eggs, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Add whipping cream; stir well. Pour into slow cooker.
  • 2
    In small bowl, mix remaining ingredients. Sprinkle over sweet potato mixture.
  • 3
    Cover; cook on High heat setting 3 to 4 hours.

  • An equal amount of pumpkin pie spice can be substituted in place of cinnamon and nutmeg in this recipe.
  • Toasting pecans and other nuts brings out their flavor. To toast pecans, spread in ungreased shallow pan. Bake uncovered at 350°F 6 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown.
  • Be sure to spray the inside of the slow cooker crock with cooking spray—cleanup will be much easier.
