1 Video | Photo: Sweet Potato Casserole Recipe
Ingredients
Casserole:
- 2 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes (about 3)
- 1 orange, zested and juiced
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 diced dried apricots
Topping:
- 1/2 cup oatmeal
- 1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter, cut into pea-sized pieces
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Put the sweet potatoes on a sheet tray and roast for 35 to 40 minutes. The sweet potatoes might still be a little hard in the center- no problem!
While the sweet potatoes are baking make the topping. In a food processor, combine the oatmeal, brown sugar, olive oil, butter, and walnuts and pulse until mixture comes together.
When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel them and cut them into 1-inch chunks. Discard the skins. Put the potatoes into a large dish and add the remaining ingredients. Mash together with a potato masher until well combined.
Transfer the mixture to a 2-quart casserole dish. Crumble the topping mixture over the potatoes. Bake until the mixture hot all the way through and the topping is brown and crispy, about 30 minutes.
That's a hot sweet potato!

I've made this twice now and think it's fantastic. The first time I made it was just per the recipe, it was awesome! Made it again last night for a guest, but didn't have any oranges, so substituted lemons instead (doubled the honey and added a tsp. of minced fresh ginger, and it was even better! Thanks, Anne!

Sorry, I'd never recommend this recipe to anyone. The topping is overly sweet and cloying. The sweet potato mixture is just usual.

I made this for an office Christmas party. I thought it was kind of blah. And no one went for seconds or even commented to me if it tasted good or not. Not sure what but something was missing, and I made it exactly as the directions said. I had a lot of left overs that my husband tried and he said it was only okay.
