Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Peel and cut yams into 1 inch cubes. Place cut yams into a heavy bottomed pot and fill with water. Place pot on stove over medium high heat until yams are easily pierced with a fork. * A 48 oz can of yams can be substituted for this step.

Step 3

Drain yams into a mixing bowl. Add butter, brown sugar, salt and white pepper to the yams. Begin mixing the yams using a spatula adding enough hot milk until the mixture is moistened. Continue whipping the yams until fluffy. Fold in the white raisins. Place raisin and yam mixture into a shallow buttered casserole dish.

Step 4

Combine brown sugar, flour, and butter together until mixture begins to crumble. Fold in chopped pecans. Sprinkle crumbled topping over the yams.

Bake uncover for 30 minutes or until topping is melted and crispy.
