1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons melted vegan butter (I use Earth Balance Original)
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/3 cup melted vegan butter (I use Earth Balance Original)
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup all purpose flour
3/4 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup sweetened coconut flakes, toasted, optional

2. To make the topping, mix together all topping ingredients. Sprinkle over the casserole.
3. Bake for 45 minutes or until thoroughly hot.
Source of recipe: Modified from a non vegan recipe, since this is one of our favorite holiday dishes prior to becoming vegan. I couldn't find a recipe anywhere that was vegan and tasted like we remembered until this, that is.
