Make the Topping
- In a separate bowl, mix together the chopped pecans, oats, brown sugar, and melted butter until combined.
- Sprinkle the topping evenly over the sweet potato base in the crockpot.
Cook the Casserole
- Cover the crockpot and set it to cook on low for 4 hours or on high for 2 hours.
- Check for doneness by inserting a fork into the sweet potatoes; they should be tender.
Serve
