Sweet Potato Crisp

This dish I created for a holiday meal. It may be used as a side dish served hot like you would candied sweet potatoes or as a dessert served warm with ice cream or whipped cream. This is also very good served cold. This recipe makes a 9x13 pan for a large serving but cut the recipe in 1/2 and have anytime!

10 Sweet Potatoes or 6 Large Yams
1/2 Cup Sugar
1/4 Cup Brown Sugar
1 Heaping TBS Flour
1/4 TSP Salt
Dash of Cinnamon
1 TBS Lemon Juice
1 TSP Vanilla
3 TBS. Melted Butter
Preheat Oven to 375 Degrees
Peel & dice potatoes into small cubes about 1/2 inch in size. Stir them into the lemon juice right away to keep them from turning brown. Once they are all cubed , mix your dry ingredients together & coat the potatoes. Mix the wet ingredients together & stir this into your potatoes. Pour mixture into a sprayed with baking spray or buttered pan. Sprinkle topping over potatoes.

TOPPING:
1 Cup Oatmeal
3/4 Cup Brown Sugar
3/4 Flour
1/4 Cup White Sugar
1/8 TSP Baking Soda
1/2 TSP Salt
1 TSP Cinnamon
5 TBS Butter
Mix the dry together. Rub butter into dry like crumbs. Cover the potatoes with the topping. Sprinkle the top with more cinnamon. Bake 45 to 55 Minutes. Test with a sharp knife to make sure the potatoes are soft! bake until they are completely soft! Serve hot as a side dish, warm with the ice cream or whipped cream as a dessert or cold as dessert! If you LOVE apple crisp & you LOVE sweet potatoes then you will LOVE this !
