Begin by peeling and chopping the sweet potatoes into chunks. Place them in a large pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are fork-tender. Drain and let them cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, mash the cooked sweet potatoes until smooth. You can use a potato masher or a hand mixer for a creamier texture.
Add the maple syrup, brown sugar, milk, melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt to the mashed sweet potatoes. Whisk until well combined and the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease your 9×13 inch baking dish with a little butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Pour the sweet potato mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula. If you’re using chopped pecans, sprinkle them over the top for added crunch.
Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden and the edges are bubbly.
