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.
