CANDIED YAMS
The dark, orange-fleshed variety of sweet potato commonly known as the yam has been a Southern staple since colonial times, and candied yams have enjoyed wide popularity since the late 19th century -- especially at Thanksgiving. Try them alongside roast turkey with mashed potatoes and gravy.

Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F.
- Wrap each yam in aluminum foil, pierce all over with a fork and place on a baking sheet. Bake the yams until tender when pierced with a sharp knife, about 1 hour.
- Remove the yams from the oven, and reduce the oven temperature to 400 degrees F. Unwrap the yams immediately and let cool. Using your fingers or a sharp knife, peel the yams and cut crosswise into slices 1 inch thick.
- FOR TOPPING: In a bowl, combine the brown sugar, butter, walnuts and pumpkin pie spice. Using a fork or your fingertips, mix until coarse and crumbly.
- Lightly butter an 8-inch square baking dish. Place half of the yam slices in the prepared dish, arranging them in a single layer. Sprinkle evenly with half of the topping. Layer the remaining yam slices on top and sprinkle with the remaining topping. Place the baking dish on a baking sheet. Bake until the topping melts and is bubbling, 15-20 minutes.
- Spoon onto warmed plates and serve immediately.
