Yield 15 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4lbs yams or sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into large chunks
¼ cup butter, room temperature
¼ cup half and half or evaporated milk
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2 tsp vanilla
½ teaspoon cinnamon
pinch of nutmeg
ground pepper, to taste
½ cup butter (yeah, there's a lot of butter)
1 cup lightly packed brown sugar
½ cup flour
1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Cook yams in boiling, salted water until they're easily pierced with a paring knife. Drain, return to pot. Mash together with butter and cream. Mix together eggs, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and pepper. Add to yams, mix well to combine. While yams are cooking, melt butter in a small saucepan. Add sugar, flour, and pecans. Mix well. Scoop yam mixture into a 9x13 pyrex or casserole. Top evenly with brown sugar mixture. Bake in preheated oven for about 30 minutes, or until the top is bubbly and yummy-looking. Serve warm or at room temperature.

I'm not a big fan of yams, but I actually really enjoyed this casserole. The yams were sweet and tender, and the topping was crispy and delicious. I would definitely make this again.

This casserole was a total disaster! The yams were mushy and the topping was burnt. I'm not sure what went wrong, but I won't be making this recipe again.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I think I'll add some spices next time to give it more flavor.

This casserole was a bit too sweet for my taste, but my family loved it. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I was a bit skeptical about this recipe at first, but I'm so glad I tried it! The yams were so sweet and the topping was the perfect balance of sweet and crunchy. I will definitely be making this again.
