cream & pecans. One taste & we all agreed it was amazing.
It's been at every Thanksgiving since. Make ahead tips
included.
1/4 c light brown sugar, packed
3 Tbsp unsalted butter, at room temp.
3 Tbsp flour
Work together until well combined.
Work in:
1/3 c pecans, chopped fine
Set aside.
(This can be made up to 8 hr ahead & stored at room temp)
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil over high heat.
Add:
6 medium yams (about 3 lbs) peeled & cut into 1/2" thick
rounds.
Cook until crisp tender, about 5 minutes. Do not overcook!
They should hold their shape when drained. Drain & rinse
under cold running water.
Lightly butter a 13x9 baking dish.
Arrange the yams, overlapping in vertical rows,
in the prepared dish.
(The yams can be arranged in the baking dish up to 8 hr
before baking, covered tightly with plastic wrap & refrigerated).
Pour: 1 1/2 c heavy cream, heated over the yams.
Bake at 375 for 20 minutes.
Crumble the pecan mixture over the yams & continue baking
until the yams are tender & the topping is browned, 20-30 more
minutes.
Serve hot.
