CANDIED SWEET POTATOES WITH PECANS



Candied Sweet Potatoes with Pecans image

This is my favorite style of a Thanksgiving or Christmas time sweet potato side dish, since I'm not really a big fan of whipped sweet potatoes with marshmallow toppings. This is a very sweet dish (candied) but more to my liking. The spice and pecans add a whole new level of taste and texture.

Time 2h20m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 pounds orange-fleshed sweet potatoes
1 cup packed dark brown sugar
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
½ cup chopped pecans
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
2 teaspoons unsalted butter, softened

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Prick potatoes several times with a fork and place on a baking sheet.
  • Bake potatoes in the preheated oven until you can easily pierce them halfway through with a sharp knife, about 1 1/2 hours. Remove from the oven and allow to cool until easily handled, at least 20 minutes. Leave the oven on.
  • Meanwhile, mix brown sugar, 1/2 cup butter, pecans, and pumpkin pie spice for topping in a bowl until thoroughly combined.
  • Peel the cooled sweet potatoes and cut crosswise into 3/4-inch thick slices.
  • Lightly grease a 9x13-inch ceramic or glass baking dish with 2 teaspoons butter. Spread potato slices in a single layer in the dish and spoon a bit of topping over each slice. Add remaining potato slices in a second layer and sprinkle with remaining topping.
  • Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until bubbly and browned, about 20 minutes. Use a serving spoon to dish this out, making sure to get to some of the sauce from the bottom for each serving.

SWEET POTATO PECAN PATTIES



Sweet Potato Pecan Patties image

From Cooking Light, these were suggested being served as veggie burgers with whole-grain buns and Boston lettuce leaves with chili sauce. I think they're too carb-rich for that but would make a nice starch side to have with greens and another protein like tofu or seitan. I guess that 3 or so sweet potatoes would be enough?
