SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE with the Best Pecan Crumble Topping!

This sweet potato casserole is a must-make Thanksgiving side dish. Fluffy and whipped spiced sweet potatoes are topped with the most delicious nutty pecan crumble. It’s packed with so much flavor and texture that you certainly won’t miss any marshmallow topping! In fact, I’ve never been a huge fan of the traditional marshmallow-topped casserole (that’s overly sweet), so I always opt for this version that’s naturally sweetened with dates, vanilla, and cinnamon (that’s perfectly sweet). You can even make it ahead of time to reduce a little stress on Thanksgiving - check out all my tips on the blog post below! 🖨 Printable Sweet Potato Casserole Recipe: https://downshiftology.com/recipes/he... 🖨 Best Thanksgiving Side Dishes: https://downshiftology.com/healthy-th...
