Candied Sweet Potatoes

Here is another of my mom's recipes for Sweet Potatoes. It seems like with the Holidays coming up our thoughts turn to food and the good things we eat at Thanksgiving and Christmas.

1 Reynolds oven bag
1 Tbsp. flour
4 small sweet potatoes, peeled and cut in 1/8 in. thick slices
1/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/4 cup butter, sliced
2 Tbsp. pancake syrup or molasses
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/3 to 1/2 cup chopped pecans
Place oven bag in a 13 x 9 baking dish. Add flour; twist end of bag and shake. Add sweet potatoes and next 5 ingredients. Squeeze to blend. Arrange in an even layer. Close bag and cut 6 slits in top. Bake 45 min. in a 350 degree oven.
