Oh my goodness, this is sweet potato casserole (and not just any sweet potato casserole) is definitely one of our new fall faves, and is absolutely making an appearance at Thanksgiving…and also possibly at Christmas as well. The thing about this dish that elevates it from the usual November/December staple is the topping we’ve added…the salted caramel pretzel topping, that is.
That’s right, what was a wonderfully sweet and autumnal dish just became even more so with the addition of salted caramel sauce and pretzels. Something about the salty sweet combo gets us, along with the great crunch that the pretzels offer, and it turns into a more complete dish that has a little something for everyone. Trust us, it’s impossible to resist this dish!
