Follow numbered steps for authentic taste and perfectionPreheat the oven to 350°F.
Put the potatoes on a foil-lined baking sheet and roast until tender throughout, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
When cool enough to handle, peel away the skin and put the pulp in a large mixing bowl.
Using a potato masher, blend the sweet potato pulp together with the syrup, butter, and salt until smooth.
Lightly butter a large (9-by-12-by-2 1/2 inch) 3-quart baking dish and transfer the sweet potato mixture to a dish.
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
In a medium mixing bowl, using your hands, mix together the sugar, flour, butter, peanuts, and salt until the butter chunks are pea size. (You are looking for a streusel-like topping here.) Evenly distribute over the top of the sweet potato mixture.
Bake until the topping is crisp and golden brown, about 30 minutes.
Transfer the baking dish to a cooling rack, and drizzle the casserole with the syrup, using a crosshatch pattern.
Let the syrup sink into the topping for a few minutes before serving.
