Notes

  • If you don't have all the spices, a simple combination of cinnamon and nutmeg will do.
  •  If you don't have pecans, walnuts or almonds can be used in place of them.
  • If you want a crunchier topping, try adding a few tablespoons of breadcrumbs.
  • If you don't have mini marshmallows, regular-sized ones can be used. Just cut them in half before sprinkling them over the top.
  • For a sweeter casserole, add an extra tablespoon or two of sugar.
  • For a spicier casserole, add a dash of cayenne pepper.
