I make this with fresh yams, just bake in the oven like a potato. Peel the skin off and continue this recipe. I don't use the cereal but substitute with flour. My family & I normally do not eat yams, but this recipe is loved by everyone in my family.

Actually got my family to eat sweet potatoes! Very delicious recipe! I thought it was a little too sweet, so next time I will not add the white sugar, and a little less brown sugar. I didn't have any corn flakes, so I substituted flour, and it still turned out wonderful.

Note: I gave an A to under ten percent of students while teaching college. But, I had to give Carol Graham's casserole five stars. Two changes made on the first dish (Jan 2009, taken to a church lunch): 1) Use pecans instead of walnuts and 2) use straight corn flakes ("already enough sugar").

This recipe was so easy to make. Turned out wonderful and everyone loved it. Said it tasted like pumpkin pie filling! Will be making this next year at Thanksgiving. The frosted flakes were a nice crunch.

This is great. I used pecans instead of walnuts and used Honey Bunches of Oats because I didn't have frosted corn flakes.

I made this for thanksgiving. All 18 people there loved it even those who thought they didn't like sweet potatoes. I make this with sweet potatoes. I microwave them and scoop out the inside and mash. I also cut back on the sugar in the casserole part. Really delicious!

I love this recipe and make this every year. It's the best yam casserole I've ever had. I use pecans instead of walnuts and use a little less butter. I love sweet and this is perfect for me.

I have never had so many comments from a yam dish. I've had moms, grandmas and aunts tell me this is the best yam casserole they've ever had, and I've passed the recipe to them...In the yams I use brown sugar instead of white, and in the topping I don't add walnuts and use more cereal.

Leftovers - what leftovers? I have a big family Christmas at my house, but in the past, almost the whole sweet potato casserole would be leftover. Not this year! It was practically licked clean and everyone raved and asked for the recipe. I did substitute regular corn flakes for the frosted because that was what I had on hand, but otherwise followed it to the letter. Thank you for bringing sweet potatoes back to our holiday gathering!

The most mouth-watering and delightful yam casserole you will ever put in your mouth. Had rave reviews at the Christmas table, with "this is a keeper" and "I don't even like yams, but I'll eat this any day of the week." You can't go wrong with this recipe. Enjoy!

This was the runaway hit at Christmas dinner - it was loved even by devout yam haters! I did not have white sugar, so used all brown sugar and it was still delicious. It is sweet, but no sweeter than the normal yam marshmallow concoction we usually make, so if your group digs that - this will not be too sweet for them. Again, an AMAZING yam recipe. Don't let the frosted flakes scare you off...it seems strange, but the end result is magnifique!

Hi all! I am Carol Graham that submitted this recipie. I use pecans now instead of walnuts. The leftovers are only good cold, DO NOT MICROWAVE because the frosted flakes get soggy. Those of you that add marshmellows, I think that would not allow the topping to be crunchy. I do bake it a little longer, until the center is firm.

This was just the best! It's so good, so addicting! I used 2# fresh yams, changed the white sugar to 1/4 c. brown sugar and used Total Brown Sugar and Oats, slightly crushed. It was fantastic. Made it for the Holidays once and EVERYONE raved, now it's a tradtional dish. Thanks!

I cooked this for Christmas and my whole family raved about it. I was out of brown sugar, so I used all white sugar. The family didn't seem to mind one bit. Great recipe!!!
