Ingredients

Honey Tips
Honey Flavors and Colors
Honey has different flavors and colors, depending on the location and kinds of flowers the bees visit. Climatic conditions of the area also influence its flavor and color.
Directions
Preheat oven to 375°. Lightly oil a 2-quart casserole dish.
In a large pot, boil yams until just becoming fork tender, approximately 10-12 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water. Peel and slice into 1/4-inch thick slices.
In a small bowl whisk together honey, orange juice, orange zest and bourbon.
Arrange half of the yam slices in prepared pan. Pour 1/2 of the honey mixture over yams. Sprinkle with half of the pecans. Layer remaining yams on top. Pour remaining honey mixture over all. Sprinkle with remaining pecans. Dot with butter pieces.
Bake 40 minutes uncovered, basting occasionally with pan juices. Remove from oven. Let sit 5 minutes before serving.
