Here's a nice variation for the yam dish that doesn't tie up either oven or stove top! I prefer using long, slender yams for this recipe. Ingredients:
4 lbs yams, unpeeled, sliced 1/4 inch thick |
1 (20 ounce) can apple pie filling |
1 cup golden raisin |
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted |
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon |
1 cup pecans, coarsely chopped |
1/3 cup granulated sugar |
2 tablespoons unsalted butter |
Directions:
1. FOR THE YAMS, with non-stick cooking spray, coat inside of a 4-quart crock pot.
2. Into crock pot place sliced yams, pie filling, raisins, melted butter & cinnamon, then gently stir to mix.
3. Cover & cook on LOW 6-7 hours or until yams are cooked through.
4. FOR THE TOPPING, in large skillet, add chopped pecans, sugar & 2 tablespoons butter, then cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, 8-10 minutes or until sugar mixture adhering to nuts turns golden & starts to melt.
5. Pour mixture onto some heavy duty foil, & let cool completely.
6. When cool, coarsely crush nut mixture.
7. When yams are done, sprinkle with crushed nut mixture & serve.
