GF Yams with Cranberries ~ a wonderful part of our belated Christmas dinner

A snowy NJ was beautifully with me

as I prepared for our belated Christmas dinner.

I got this recipe from one of my NJ friends:

1/2 cup flour

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

1/2 cup oatmeal, uncooked

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/3 cup butter

2 (17 ounce) cans yams, drained

2 cups cranberries, raw

I used GF all purpose flour and GF oatmeal.

Mix flour, sugar, oatmeal and cinnamon together.

{I accidentally forgot the sugar and cut it in at the end.}

I bought one 19 oz tin of yams in pear juice and syrup.

I drained the liquid and lightly rinsed the yams.

So you make the crumb mixture first,

then cut in the butter and toss with yams and cranberries.

I added extra crumb mixture to top and more cinnamon. 

On Mr. Husband and I's honeymoon in Quebec City,

one of our waiters at a nice restaurant said to us

everything is better with butter.

I agree, and would add for these yams,

everything is better with butter and cinnamon. 

Of course not overly cinnamon-ing the dish,

but sweetening it.

Hard to see, but there it is on the table,

hot and ready to eat.

This dish is a wonderful compliment to a festive meal!
