Twice-baked Sweet Potatoes
3 large sweet potatoes
3 T softened butter
1/4 cup dark brown sugar
1/3 cup quick oats
1/3 cup chopped pecans
The night before Thanksgiving, scrub and pierce the potatoes, and put them on a baking sheet for an hour in a 350° oven. Remove and cool.
The next day, about an hour before the Turkey is done, peel and mash the potatoes, and put them in a greased baking dish (my small oval dish is perfect for this). Mix the butter and sugar until combined, then stir in the oatmeal and pecans. Spread evenly over the top and place on the bottom rack of the oven, (next to the dressing in the small square baker) for about an hour at 325°.
You can see the result in the bottom of the photo here.
