Praline Sweet Potatoes

 
This week I tried a yummy new sweet  potato recipe. I was so happy that my kids love it too, seeing that I have such a hard time getting them to eat vegetables, especially my son. My daughter had 2 helpings and my son ate his entire serving. Sweet potatoes are loaded with vitamin A and they also provide a nice amount of vitamin C. I found this recipe on the back of the Princella sweet potato can. It was super easy.

Ingredients:

29 oz can of sweet potatoes in light syrup
1/3 cup chopped pecans
1/3 cup sweetened flaked coconut
1/3 packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons flour(I used 5)
3 tablespoons butter, melted

Heat oven to 350. Place drained potatoes in an ungreased 1 & 1/2 quart casserole dish. In small bowl, combine remaining ingredients. Blend well. Sprinkle over sweet potatoes. Bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes.

THANK YOU!!! I lost my worn and much used Princella label, and now can't find that brand at my local grocery stores. Even the Princella website does not list this recipe. It wouldn't be Thanksgiving without our traditional sweet potatoes! Thanks again!

I, too, lost my Princella label, Last year I downloaded this recipe from Cooks.com. It;s the same as Amber's but produces a third more:
PRALINE YAMS
40 oz can Princella yams, drained
Half Cup chopped pecans
Half Cup Coconut (optional)
Half cup firmly packed brown sugar
one-quarter cup flour
One-quarter cup butter, melted
Preparation and cooking time same as Amber's recipe

Great recipe I've used for a few years. But my twist is I smash up the sweet potatoes before putting em in the baking dish and topping them.
