Best Sweet Potato Casserole

Best Sweet Potato Recipe I ever had. Not sure if it was the recipe or the fact that I used my own home grown sweet potatoes for this recipe. I do like this recipe because it is not overly sweet like so many other sweet potato recipes.  My homegrown sweet potatoes were massive in size so I could double this recipe with just one single potato.

Preparation Tip: Peel and cut up fresh garden sweet potatoes. Steam the sweet potatoes in a steamer until a fork inserts into them easily.
