Pecan Streusel Topped Sweet Potatoes

Sweet potatoes have a much greater nutritional value than standard potatoes as evidenced by their color. This recipe is a not so sweet alternative to the standard marshmallow topped sweet potato dish.

Ingredients:

9-by-13-inch glass baking dish

6 medium-size sweet potatoes or yams (3 pounds)

1/2 cup flour

1/2 cup packed light brown sugar

6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter

1/3 cup chopped pecans

heavy cream
