Bourbon Sweet Potato Casserole

This is my favorite version of Sweet Potato Casserole. It’s rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced with warm spices and a touch of bourbon for extra depth of flavor. The sweet potato base is smooth and buttery, while the pecan topping adds a crunchy finish that brings everything together. This is one of those classic comfort dishes that always shows up on the table during the holidays. Hope you enjoy my recipe.
