This was so delicious! I did make two small changes.. One-I used fresh sweet potatoes and cook them instead of the canned. Two-I used the Splenda brown sugar blend and only used a half a cup of that. But sooooo good!

After reading the reviews I cut back on the brown sugar. I used about 3/4 cup.It was still plenty sweet enough, but the topping was too crumbly. It didn’t have that stick togetherness you get with the proper amount of sugar. It will take more work next time, but I’ll start with fresh sweet potatoes, instead of canned in syrup. I’ll bake them till almost done and then add the topping and finish baking. Maybe I’ll add some marshmallow instead of the extra sugar.

I made the recipe as written except I used 3 lbs sweet potatoes instead of the canned. It turned out great. I felt the measurements were correct and the dish wasn’t overly sweet, but that may have been because I didn’t use the canned potatoes.

I liked this recipe, but it was just a little too sweet for me personally. The topping was awesomely delicious; I think it would be great on fruit or ice cream, actually. However, I thought there was too much topping for how much potato there was. Also the only canned sweet potatoes I could find were in syrup (this is my first time using them so I don’t know if they come any other way) and though I drained them very well, I think that also added too much sweetness. Next time I would reduce the topping slightly and only use about 3/4 of it, and also use fresh sweet potatoes or canned ones that are not in syrup.
