Crock Pot Apple Spiced Yams

Here's a nice variation for the yam dish that doesn't tie up either oven or stove top! I prefer using long, slender yams for this recipe.

Steps

For the yams , with non-stick cooking spray , coat inside of a 4-quart crock pot.
Into crock pot place sliced yams , pie filling , raisins , melted butter & cinnamon , then gently stir to mix.
Cover & cook on low 6-7 hours or until yams are cooked through.
For the topping , in large skillet , add chopped pecans , sugar & 2 tablespoons butter , then cook over medium heat , stirring constantly , 8-10 minutes or until sugar mixture adhering to nuts turns golden & starts to melt.
Pour mixture onto some heavy duty foil , & let cool completely.
When cool , coarsely crush nut mixture.
When yams are done , sprinkle with crushed nut mixture & serve.

Ingredients

yams, apple pie filling, golden raisin, unsalted butter, ground cinnamon, pecans, granulated sugar
