Description

Ingredients

• 4 very small yams ( or 3-4 ounces per person) - Sliced
• olive oil
• salt
• fresh cracked pepper
• real maple syrup
• pecans, a handful

Directions

• Pre-heat oven to 425 F
• Slice yams into ¼ inch thin rounds.
• Toss with olive oil so all sides are coated.
• Lay them out on a parchment or foil lined sheet pan, mostly in one layer. A little overlap is fine, but do not crowd too much.
• Sprinkle with generous pinch salt and cracked pepper.
• Roast 20 minutes in the oven. Scatter with pecans and drizzle with a little maple. Gently mix and then return to the oven for 10 more minutes, or until edges begin to caramelize and yams are tender. Place on a platter or baking dish, cover loosely with foil and keep warm until serving.
