- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1 ¼ cups chopped pecans
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9×13 baking dish.
- Add the sweet potatoes to a large pot and add enough water to cover them by 1 inch. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain.
- In a large bowl, mash the sweet potatoes with the remaining filling ingredients. Spread in the prepared baking dish.
