Grandma’s Recipes – Sweet Potato Casserole

This is another one of those classic Southern recipes! Sweet potatoes grow well in the sometimes sandy, sometimes rocky and sometimes clay soil of the South making sweet potatoes a good crop to have around.
This recipe really lets the comforting taste of the sweet potatoes come through and it is easy to customize. I left out the coconut and the vanilla because I didn’t have any on hand, but I did add a few sprinkles of cinnamon and nutmeg. Also, I used only about half the sugar that the recipe called for and it was still delicious!
