of “candied” potatoes. the coconut is sweet, but not overwhelming – the pecans add a nice crunch. plus – i love that this is a slow cooker side dish, so you can just set them in and let their delicious cinnamon-y scent fill your home!
these coconut pecan sweet potatoes are a great side dish. they're a much healthier version of candied potatoes!
