Sunburst Yam Bake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Poke yams in several places with a fork, then cook them on high power in microwave oven until heated through and soft, about 20 minutes. When cooled, remove skins and place the yams in a large bowl.
• Beat yams until smooth. Then beat in one egg at a time, blending after each addition. Stir in 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/8 cup melted butter, salt, cinnamon, allspice and nutmeg; beat until the mixture is light and fluffy.
• Transfer mixture to an ungreased 3 quart casserole dish. Arrange the pecans in a single layer on top. Sprinkle with remaining brown sugar and drizzle 1/4 cup melted butter over the top.
• Bake for 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until browned and bubbly.

Steps:

• Cook yams and mash.
• Blend with next 4 ingredients.
• Place in buttered casserole dish.
• Mix topping ingredients and sprinkle on yams.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 30- 40 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a large bowl combine yams, melted butter, white sugar, evaporated milk, eggs, nutmeg, cinnamon and vanilla extract. Mix well and transfer to a 9x9 inch casserole dish.
• In a medium bowl cream butter with brown sugar. Stir in walnuts and frosted cereal. Spread on top of yam mixture.
• Bake in preheated oven for 35 minutes.

Steps:

• Peel the yams, cut them up in large pieces for boiling.
• Boil the yams in a large pot for 30 minutes or until tender.
• Drain and mash with mixer.
• Add in eggs, butter, milk, sugar, vanilla. Beat until creamy.
• Pour into 9x13 baking dish.
• Bake 20 minutes at 400 degrees f.
• While the top is baking, crush 12 Lorna Doone cookies. You want bits and pieces, not dust.
• Melt 1/2 cup butter.
• Combine crushed cookies, brown sugar, pecans and melted butter. I suggest not using a mixer. The idea is to get the ingredients mixed, but not processed into mud. Just get the stuff mixed up.
• Remove the casserole from oven at the end of the first baking time.
• Distribute the topping carefully over the top of the casserole. There will likely not be sufficient topping to cover it all. No problem. Get out some mini marshmallows and cover the top to suit your liking. I ended using two cups worth.
• Return the casserole to the oven for a maximum of 5 minutes. I recommend keeping a wary eye on it to remove it should the marshmallows start burning. Some folks like marshmallows toasted dark, so of course, you will want to let this go according to your preferences.
• When done, we covered the casserole with foil and drove across town to have Thanksgiving dinner with family. The casserole remained very hot the entire time, and was just perfect to serve up thereafter.

Steps:

• Combine sugar, flour and nutmeg.
• Cut in butter till mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• Add nuts (see note).
• Arrange yams and peaches in casserole; sprinkle w/sugar mixture.
• Pour some of the peach juice and yam juice around yams (about 1/2 to 1 cup).
• Bake@ 350 degrees, 35 minutes.
• Sprinkle w/mini mallows.
• Broil till lightly browned.
• Note:** I double the recipe for the topping, ingredients 1 to 4 only, but if you like additional nuts, add more.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Toss yams and cranberries together in a bowl. Mix flour, brown sugar, oatmeal, margarine, and cinnamon together in a separate bowl. Add about half the oat mixture to the yam mixture; toss to combine and spread into a 1 1/2-quart casserole dish. Sprinkle remaining oat mixture over the casserole.
• Bake in preheated oven until lightly browned, about 35 minutes.
