I made this for an office potluck and got rave reviews. I used a 29 ounce can of yams drained, a 15 oz can of pears drained then mashed together. I added 1/3 cup of brown sugar, 1/2 stick of butter, 1/4 tsp cinnamon and 1/4 tsp ginger. Simmered in my slow cooker on medium for about 45 minutes -- out of this world. Next time I will also add 1/4 tsp of cloves.

We loved it at our house and a coworker liked it too! I halved the recipe but used almost all the butter (I cut of the end to butter bread so not sure how much it was total) and used all the cinnamon. It was too much butter. If you like cinnamon taste then leave what is called, I like a hint not a flavor so will be using less next time. And there will be a next time!

I wasn't a big fan of the pear in this dish. I am a big fan of sweet potatoes and wanted ot see if it was possible to make them better. I believe that they can stand alone and I could see how this recipe would be very good without the pear addition.

I thought this recipe was very yummy. My husband and 3 year old daughter didn't care for it though. The pear flavor was very strong, but I liked it. The consistency was a bit runny.

Assuming you like sweet potatoes, it is very good. I substituted some splenda for half the brown sugar and only used a few tbsp butter. Loved the pear flavor.

Quick and easy! Should be in all family kitchen cook books. My wife loves it. I halved everything and puréed the pears. Heated them in the micro for 1 minute then mixed all. The second time you make this adjust the brown sugar up/down to match your local or national sweet potato. If its yellow you've used sweet potatoes if its orange they're yams and need less brown sugar. The photo is miss leading.

In a nutshell, I really liked these but my boyfriend and guests said they were only "ok". Their suggestion was "less pear". I may try this again with that suggestion. Otherwise, I thought the two made a good pairing and very much enjoyed the recipe!

This recipes for sweet potatoes has now taken the place of our boring baked sweet potatoes. I made it exactly as wwritten and it was fabulous. We liked the fact that it is low in sugar and fat. I will make this recipe a lot! Thanks!

I made this for a dinner party and it went over well. The pears are a subtle flavor. I didn't mix it as much as it says in the recipe because I like a little more texture in my sweet potatoes.

This recipe is great!! I use fresh pears and leave large chunks in to add more texture. My husband would eat this every night of the week if he could.

The flavor was just perfect - not too sweet but delicious. The only problem is that they were a little too runny - maybe because I boiled the potatoes instead of microwaving. Also, I didn't have any pears, so I used canned cubed pineapple - I loved the taste!

I served this dish for Christmas Eve and everyone raved about it. I roasted the sweet potatoes in the oven first and then mashed it with the pears. I did add a little pure maple syrup to sweeten it. Excellent dish!

I made these for Thanksgiving and everyone in the room commented on how tasty they were. I put an extra 1/4 cup of pears in and sprinkled brown sugar on top. Delicious and so easy!
