How to Make Apple Spiced Sweet Potatoes
- Spray a 4-quart slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray.
- Peel and chop 3 pounds of sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes.

- Gently stir to combine.
- Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or until sweet potatoes are tender.
- While the sweet potatoes cook, prepare the candied pecans: In a large skillet, combine 1 cup pecan halves, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and 2 tablespoons butter.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, for 8-10 minutes, or until the sugar melts and turns a light golden brown, coating the pecans.
