Ingredients

  • 1 40 oz Can Yams Drained and Light Syrup Reserved
  • 1 10 oz Can Mandarin Oranges Drained
  • 1/4 tsp Cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp Nutmeg
  • 4 Tbls Brown Sugar
  • 1/2 Cup Butter Melted
  • 1/4 Cup Bisquick Regular or Gluten Free
  • 1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
  • 1/2 Cup Chopped Pecans

Instructions

  1. Butter the sides of an 8x12 baking dish or 9-inch pie or cake pan. Remove the Yams from a 40 oz can and reserve the light syrup. Smash the Yams in the baking dish until all are broken down into a Yam mush. Pour in about 1/8 to a ¼ cup of the light syrup so that the Yam mixture is moist. Drain a 10 ounce can of Mandarin Oranges. Cut the segments into thirds, and fold into the Yam mixture. Add 1/8 tsp of cinnamon and nutmeg (save the other half of nutmeg and cinnamon for the topping), and 4 tablespoons of brown sugar. Mix and smooth out the top.

  2. In a separate bowl mix ¼ cup of Bisquick, ½ cup of brown sugar, 1/8 tsp of nutmeg and cinnamon, and ½ cup of chopped pecans. Then shake over yam mixture evenly.

  3. Melt Butter and pour over topping. Bake in 375-degree oven for 30 minutes until golden brown.
