Recipe for crushed benne wafers topping for sweet potato casseroles
Last Updated on
A little something extra can make all the difference and this recipe for crushed benne wafers is the perfect example. This topping takes an already delicious sweet potato casserole and makes it even better. The key ingredient in this recipe is benne seeds, which are toasted sesame seeds. You’ll want to use toasted sesame seeds for the best flavor, but if you can’t find them, you can substitute raw sesame seeds.
To make the crushed benne wafer topping, simply combine the benne seeds with some flour, sugar, and salt. Then use a food processor or blender to pulse the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. I like to use a food processor because it really breaks down the benne seeds and gives the topping a nice texture.
This benne wafer topping is great on sweet potato casseroles, but you can also use it on pies, cobblers, and even ice cream! It’s the perfect way to add a little crunch and flavor to any dessert.
