The casserole isn't overly sweet, but you can adjust the sweetness if you like. Orange zest and juice add a distinct citrusy, fresh flavor, and together with dried apricots, sweet potatoes, and cinnamon, it creates a truly interesting combination. The crispy nut-oat topping contrasts beautifully with the casserole's texture. This is a great dish to treat guests to. It also makes a wonderful breakfast the next day (if you have any leftovers, of course).

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Preheat oven to 190°C.
- Place the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet and bake for 35–40 minutes. The sweet potatoes may still be slightly firm in the center—this is normal.
- Prepare the toppingWhile the potatoes are baking, combine the oats, brown sugar, olive oil, butter, and walnuts in a food processor and process until smooth.
- When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel and cut into 2-centimeter chunks. Discard the skins. Place the sweet potatoes in a large bowl and add the remaining ingredients. Mash with a potato masher until smooth.
- Transfer the mixture to a 2-quart baking dish. Sprinkle the streusel over the potatoes. Bake until the mixture is heated through and the top is browned and crispy, about 30 minutes.
