Instructions
- Spray your crockpot with a nonstick cooking spray. Or, for easier cleanup, use a crockpot liner.
- Place all of the diced sweet potatoes in the bottom of the crockpot.
- In a small bowl, add the melted butter, brown sugar, maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt. Whisk until well mixed.

Notes
Storage: Leftover casserole will last in the fridge for up to 5 days. Make sure to store the casserole in an airtight container. We don’t recommend freezing sweet potato casserole. Freezing and thawing this recipe will give it a funny texture.
Reheating: To reheat, cover the casserole in aluminum foil and place in a 350°F oven for 10 to 15 minutes, until heated through. You can also reheat in the microwave on 80% power in 30-second increments.
Wipe The Lid: When you add marshmallows to the casserole, make sure to thoroughly wipe the condensation off the crockpot lid. If the lid is still wet, it will drip and make the marshmallows soupy.
Pumpkin Pie Spice. If you want to save time or add a little bit of extra flavor, you can replace the cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger with 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice.
Serve At A Potluck: This is a great recipe to bring to a party or potluck. The key is to cook the casserole at home, but don’t add the marshmallows. Transport the casserole in the crockpot, and turn it on once you get to the potluck. Once hot, add the marshmallows and finish the recipe as directed.
Pecan Topping: You can add some toasted chopped pecans or walnuts on top when you add the marshmallows for an added crunch.
