For a richer flavor, use freshly mashed sweet potatoes instead of canned. If you're not a fan of coconut, you can substitute it with more pecans or another nut of your choice. To prevent the topping from burning, you can cover the casserole with foil during the last 15 minutes of baking. This casserole can be made ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 2 days. Add 10-15 minutes to the baking time if baking from cold.
