4 Tbsp. butter, melted 4 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed 1/2 cup milk 1 cup brown sugar, packed 1 tsp. vanilla extract 1/2 tsp. kosher salt 2 large eggs

For sweet potatoes: Add 1 3/4 lbs. peeled and cubed sweet potatoes to a large pot of salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then lower the heat to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are very tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and cool. Mash the sweet potatoes.

For Topping: Combine the flour, brown sugar, butter and salt in a medium bowl until moist and the mixture clumps together. Stir in the pecans. Spread the topping over the top of the sweet potatoes filling evenly. Add crushed pork rinds on top.
