Sweet Potato Casserole with Crunchy Oat Topping

Sweet Potato Casserole with Crunchy Oat Topping Recipe

This classic casserole often straddles the line between side and dessert (indeed, we've enjoyed the leftovers both ways). We dial down the sugar to steer the dish back to savory territory, and add a crunchy oat-and-nut topper for texture. A final drizzle of maple syrup just before serving gives the casserole a lovely sheen. While we call for a ricer in our master mashed potatoes, a potato masher is perfectly acceptable here, since the spuds will be bound with an egg, topped, and baked.

Two-Potato Gratin Recipe

Russet and sweet potatoes join forces in this cheesy casserole that is perfect for your next potluck, holiday party, or just a cozy dinner at home. Fresh sage and fresh thyme provide an herbaceous, aromatic flavor profile that makes this dish way more than melted cheese atop sliced potatoes. Soft gruyère acts as a blanket and keeps all the warm, delicious flavors from the potatoes in a sealed, cheesy pocket.

Sweet and yukon gold potatoes are the focal point of this gratin that's perfect for the holidays. Fresh parsley and chives deliver a fresh punch that adds an unbeatable flavor. Our favorite casserole cheese, gruyère, tops off the casserole. "This luscious gratin strikes a happy middle chord for those hungry for potatoes and those vying for a sweet potato casserole." --Nancy Vienneau, author of Third Thursday Community Potluck Cookbook, from which this recipe was adapted.

Savory Sweet Potato Casserole Recipe

This holiday season, skip the usual marshmallow-topped casserole and serve this Savory Sweet Potato Casserole for a change of pace. Because sweet potatoes are so naturally sweet, they are nicely balanced by this savory Parmesan-herb streusel topping. The topping is made with day-old sourdough bread, but you can use another type of stale white bread, such as country white, if you prefer. To cut down on sticky clean up, place the potatoes on a foil-lined baking sheet before roasting them. We promise, no one will miss the marshmallows.

Are you ready for Thanksgiving? Not without a sweet potato casserole. Here's a fun twist on the traditional sweet potato casserole.

Sweet Potato Casserole with Rosemary and Goat Cheese Recipe

This savory take on sweet potato casserole has a lovely nuttiness and aromatic nature. The tang of the goat cheese plays nicely with the sweetness of the potatoes, while the crunchy pecans and crispy rosemary give a great texture and incredible looks. It's like the traditional sweet potato casserole aesthetic, but with a little more personality, plus cheese. Be sure to brown the butter with the fresh rosemary—not only does it infuse the butter with flavor, but it also crisps the rosemary leaves and provides a nice crunch.
