6-ingredient Coconut Pecan Sweet Potato Casserole with Marshmallows has crisp crunchy pecans, sweet coconut, and toasted marshmallows. This is the best Thanksgiving holiday recipe!

If you’d like to have a delicious Thanksgiving with a capital “D,” this sweet potato casserole recipe will do it! At Thanksgiving, next to dressing and turkey, this is one of my favorite dishes.

Can you blame me? A single spoonful of this casserole is brimming with gooey toasted marshmallows, crunchy pecans, sweet coconut flakes, and of course perfectly creamy sweet potato. This is that dreamy dish you think about all year until Thanksgiving finally rolls around again…

Of course, you don’t really have to wait until next Thanksgiving to serve it again. It can also make an appearance at any other fall or holiday gathering. Even better, it comes together in just around 30 minutes, making it the ideal last-minute side dish.

Coconut Pecan Sweet Potatoes go so well with all the savory dishes of Thanksgiving, and since you only eat this once a year, enjoy each bite!

Happy Thanksgiving and Happy Holidays! Below are lots of recipes and inspiration for your Thanksgiving table.

Enjoy, and remember Thanksgiving is all about these three words:

Grateful. Blessed. Thankful.

(Well and Food)

All the Best,

Lisa
