Time 1h30m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3 -4 medium yams (2 1/2 lb.) or 3 -4 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/8-inch thick rounds (2 1/2 lb.)
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon pepper
3/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1 cup crushed saltine crackers (about 20 crackers)
2/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/2 cup chopped pecans
4 tablespoons butter, melted

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375.
  • Lightly grease a 13 x 9 inch baking dish with oil or coat with cooking spray.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the cream and cayenne pepper.
  • Arrange 1/3 of the yams in an even layer on the bottom of the prepared dish.
  • Season with 1/2 t salt and 1/4 t each of black pepper and thyme.
  • Pour in 2/3 c of the cream mixture.
  • Repeat for 2 more layers.
  • In a small bowl, combine the cracker crumbs, Parmesan, pecans, and melted butter.
  • Give it a good stir so the butter coats the crackers and pecans.
  • Scatter the mixture over the top of the casserole.
  • Cover the dish with foil and bake for 15 minutes.
  • Uncover and bake until the top is golden brown, the yams are tender, and the house is filled with the most wonderful sweet and buttery smells, 30-45 minutes longer.

I'm vegan, so I used vegan butter and milk in the yam mixture. I also omitted the eggs. The casserole turned out beautifully! It was rich and creamy, and the pecan crumble topping was the perfect addition.

I'm not a big fan of sweet dishes, so I omitted the sugar from the yam mixture. The casserole was still delicious, and the pecan crumble topping added a nice savory flavor.

This yam casserole was a disappointment. The yams were bland and the pecan crumble topping was too dry. I won't be making this recipe again.
