Equipment

  • 1 Electric Skillet

Ingredients
  

  • 3 Large Yams
  • 3 Cups Brown Sugar
  • 1/2 Cup Butter

Instructions
 

  • 1. Peel and slice yams.
  • Place the brown sugar and butter in a large electric skillet.
  • Turn heat to medium and cook until the butter melts.
  • Place the sliced yams in the brown sugar mixture.
  • Once the sugar and butter start to boil, reduce the heat to simmer.
  • The yams will begin to release liquid.  This will create a syrup in the bottom of the pan.
  • Use a large pancake turner and turn the yams every five minutes to cook evenly.
  • Cook for 45 minutes or until yams are tender and the brown sugar syrup starts to thicken and coat the yams.
