SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE WITH GINGERSNAP STREUSEL



Sweet Potato Casserole With Gingersnap Streusel image

This was taken from a magazine I subscribe to, and it is absolutely too good to lose track of, so I am posting it. I made this when I hosted Thanksgiving last year, and it had rave reviews from everyone. At the time I substituted milk for the half and half with no ill-effects. I also made it two weeks ahead of time and stuck it in the freezer until the night before the big day. Enjoy!

Categories     Yam/Sweet Potato

Time 1h45m

Yield 10-15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

7 lbs sweet potatoes (6 to 8 medium)
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces and softened, plus additional for greasing pan
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
2 1/4 teaspoons salt, divided
1 cup pecans
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
4 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
granulated sugar, to taste (up to 4 Tbsp)
4 large egg yolks
1 1/2 cups half-and-half

Steps:

  • For the potatoes: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Poke sweet potatoes several times with a knife and space them evenly on a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake, turning once, until very tender and easily squeezed with tongs, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Remove potatoes from oven and cut in half lengthwise to let steam escape; cool at least 10 minutes. Scrape the flesh away from the skins into a large bowl; you should have about 8 cups. (If making ahead, cool to room temperature, and refrigerate.).
  • For the streusel: Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Pulse flour, brown sugar, and salt in a food processor until blended. Sprinkle butter pieces over the flour mixture and pulse until a crumbly mass forms, about 6 to 8 one-second pulses. Sprinkle nuts over the mixture and pulse until combined but some large nut pieces remain, 4 to 6 one-second pulses. Transfer streusel to a medium bowl and return the work bowl to the food processor.
  • Place half of the potato flesh into the food processor. With a rubber spatula, break the remaining flesh in the bowl into 1-inch chunks.
  • For the filling: Add melted butter, salt, nutmeg, pepper, vanilla, and lemon juice to the potatoes in the food processor. Process until smooth, about 20 seconds. Taste for sweetness, and add up to 4 Tbsp granulated sugar if desired. Add egg yolks and process about 15 seconds. With processor running, pour half-and-half through the feed tube and process until blended, about 30 seconds. Transfer the puréed mixture to the large bowl with the potato chunks. Stir gently until combined.
  • Pour filling into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly with a spatula. Sprinkle the streusel over the top, breaking up any large pieces with your fingers. Bake until topping is well browned and filling is puffy around the edges, about 45 minutes. Cool slightly before serving (or cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate. To reheat, bake at 400 degrees for about 25 minutes.).

Time 2h

Yield 6-8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 pounds orange-fleshed sweet potatoes (about 4 large or 5 medium)
5 (4 3/4x2 1/4") graham crackers (about 2 3/4 ounces)
1 cup pecans, coarsely chopped
1 3/4 teaspoons kosher salt, divided

1 cup mini marshmallows
An 8-inch cast-iron skillet or 2-quart baking dish

Steps:

  • Reduce oven temperature to 350ºF. Remove and discard potato skins. Transfer flesh to a large bowl and let cool completely. (You should have 4-4 1/2 cups.)
  • Place graham crackers in a resealable plastic bag. Coarsely crush with your hands into 1/2"-1" pieces. Transfer graham crackers to a medium bowl. Add pecans and 1/4 tsp. salt. Mix in 4 Tbsp. butter to combine.
  • Add milk, maple syrup, cocoa powder, vanilla, pepper, and remaining 2 Tbsp. butter and 1 1/2 tsp. salt to bowl with potato. Mash with a potato masher or fork until smooth.
  • Transfer potato mixture to skillet or baking dish. Sprinkle graham cracker mixture over. Bake casserole until streusel is lightly golden, 20-25 minutes. Sprinkle marshmallows over, then continue to bake until marshmallows are lightly golden, 10-15 minutes more. Let sit 10-15 minutes. Serve warm.
  • Potatoes can be baked and peeled 5 days ahead. Transfer to an airtight container and chill. Potato filling can be made 3 days ahead. Transfer to an airtight container and chill. Bring to room temperature before using.
