My FAVORITE Thanksgiving side dish is always my grandmother’s sweet potato casserole. It brings up so many fond memories of past holidays with each bite. This year I’m doing a spin on the classic by making individual ones! They’re delicious, easy, and my all time favorite. Happy Thanksgiving!
1 sweet potato
1 teaspoon orange zest
1 teaspoon orange juice
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon softened butter
1 tablespoon brown sugar
Topping
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon softened butter
1 tablespoon chopped pecans
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F
Wrap your sweet potato in foil and put in the oven to back 45-55 minutes or until knife tender. Lower the heat to 350 degrees F
Once cooked cut the potato in half and scoop out the center and add to a bowl. Put the skins on a sheet tray
To the sweet potato add orange zest, orange juice, vanilla extract, and butter. Mash it together with a fork and add it back into the sweet potato skins
In a small bowl mix together the brown sugar, softened butter, cinnamon, and chopped pecans
Sprinkle the top of the sweet potato with the sugar mixture and put into the oven
