Tiny Miss Cookbook and Grandmother Annie
Ingredients - Servings: 6
2 & 1/2 cups milk
3 medium yams (raw)
3 eggs
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup pecans, chopped
1/2 stick of butter
2 cups sugar (I reduce this amount to about 1 & 1/4 cups)
2 & 1/2 cups milk
3 medium yams (raw)
3 eggs
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup pecans, chopped
1/2 stick of butter
2 cups sugar (I reduce this amount to about 1 & 1/4 cups)
Steps
- Grate the raw yams into a 2-quart casserole, adding milk as you grate to prevent potatoes from turning dark.
- Beat eggs well and add sugar gradually; add cinnamon and nuts.
- Pour into yam mixture; stir well.
- Dot generously with butter and bake at 300° F for 2 hours.
