Here at Bubba Pie, we love Thanksgiving! Why wouldn’t we? The Thanksgiving meal is all about comfort food and that is what we do best!
It’s funny, my favorite part of Thanksgiving dinner isn’t the turkey, the stuffing or the desserts. It has always been the yummy casseroles and Thanksgiving side dishes!
It seems like every year, I am introduced to to some sort of new casserole that just blows me away. I certainly love a good green bean casserole or even this corn pudding casserole! But, I’ve always had a special place in my heart for sweet potatoes. My entire family loves sweet potatoes as well (it’s just about the only culinary thing we all agree on!). So, I thought it would make sense to share this Easy Sweet Potato Casserole!

Can I make this Casserole with Fresh Sweet Potatoes?
Yes!
Using canned sweet potatoes cuts down on the time it takes to cook your yams. Instead of opening up a can, you could peel, cube and boil your sweet potatoes for 15 minutes and then mash them like the instructions tell you to. You will need about three pounds of sweet potatoes.
Can I make Sweet Potato Casserole Ahead of Time?
Yes!
You can prepare the casserole ahead of time and keep in in the fridge overnight. If you go this route, you will need to cook the potatoes uncovered for an additional 20 minutes before hand to warm the potatoes up before adding your marshmallow topping. This allows all of the potatoes to heat through.
