In a separate frying pan, melt butter and combine with bread crumbs. Sprinkle this mixture over the sweet potatoes. Place casserole dish in 350°F oven for about 1 hour. Do not cover. If bread crumbs become to dark, simply lower the oven to 300°F and continue cooking until a knife is easily inserted through the sweet potatoes.
