Ingredients:

Quantity Ingredient
1 can (20 oz) Pineapple slices
2 cups Yam, sliced
1/4 cup Flour
3/4 cup Brown sugar
1/2 tsp Cinnamon
1/8 tsp Salt
3 tbsp Butter
1/4 cup Miniature marshmallows
1/4 cup Nuts (your choice), chopped

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C).

  2. Prepare Pineapple: Drain the pineapple slices, reserving 1/4 cup of the juice.

  3. Layer Pineapple: Line the sides of a baking dish with the pineapple slices, slightly overlapping them for a beautiful presentation.

  4. Arrange Yams: Arrange the sliced yams in the center of the baking dish, on top of the pineapple slices.

  5. Add Pineapple Juice: Pour the reserved pineapple juice over the yams, ensuring they’re nicely coated.

  6. Prepare Topping: In a separate bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture becomes coarse. Stir in the chopped nuts.

  7. Apply Topping: Spread this flour mixture evenly over the yams in the baking dish.

  8. Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 25 minutes, or until the yams are tender and the topping is golden brown.

  9. Add Marshmallows: Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and evenly distribute the miniature marshmallows on top of the yams.

  10. Broil: Turn on your oven’s broiler and place the dish back inside. Broil for a few minutes, keeping a close eye on it, until the marshmallows are slightly browned and gooey.

  11. Serve: Remove from the oven, allow to cool slightly, and serve warm. Enjoy this delectable Granny’s Yam Bake as a side dish for your holiday meals or any time you crave something comforting and delicious!
