Apricot Sweet Potatoes Recipe

submitted by reader Dorothy Hutchins of Carthage, MO

Ingredients
4 medium-size sweet potatoes
1 (15-ounce) can apricots in syrup
1 1/4 cups firmly packed brown sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 cup chopped pecans

Instructions
Bake or boil the sweet potatoes until tender, and set aside to cool. Grease an 8-inch square baking dish. Cut the potatoes into 1-inch thick pieces, and place them into the prepared dish.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Pour about 1 cup of the juice from the canned apricots into a small saucepan. Add the brown sugar, cornstarch, salt, and cinnamon, and stir together over medium-low heat until the mixture boils. Add the butter. Layer the apricots over the sweet potatoes. Pour the liquid over the top. Sprinkle the pecans evenly over the top. Bake for 30 minutes.
