Sweet Potato Casserole

Here is my recipe for sweet potato casserole. I'm too stuffed with thanksgiving food to write anything else. 
In conclusion, it's delicious but make it next year - it's time for a nap. 


Ingredients:
(For the casserole)
4 large sweet potatoes 
1/2 stick unsalted butter, melted 
1 egg
A pinch of salt 
2 teaspoons vanilla 
2 tablespoons sugar
(For the topping)
1 cup pecans 
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup flour
1/2 stick unsalted butter 

Directions: 
Scrub the potatoes. Poke each with a fork several times. Bake at 350 on a baking sheet for about an hour or until tender. Let cool slightly. Peel skin off. It should come off easily, but if it doesn't you can scoop out the insides instead. 
Place in food processor, or a bowl if mixing by hand.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. 
Combine potatoes with remaining casserole ingredients. Spread evenly into a baking dish. 
To make the topping, combine all ingredients in food processor, pulsing until crumbs form. Sprinkle over potato mixture. Bake for 35-40 minutes.
