Directions:
1. Heat oven to 325ºF. Lightly grease a shallow 1 1/2-quart baking dish or casserole.
2. Cook potatoes in water to cover 20 to 30min. or until firm-tender. Drain and cool under cold water. Slice in 1/2-inch thick rounds. In prepared dish, arrange rounds in concentric circles, overlapping slices slightly.

4. Bake 20 to 30 min. until hot and potatoes have absorbed some liquid.
5. Streusel Topping: Mix flour, sugar and cinnamon in a medium-size bowl. With a pastry blender or 2 knives cut in remaining 3 Tbsp. butter until mixture resembles very coarse crumbs. Stir in chopped pecans. Refrigerate if making ahead.
6. Remove potatoes from oven. Uncover and sprinkle with streusel. Bake uncovered 15 minutes or until topping is bubbly an slightly browned. Pour on remaining 1/4 c. pancake syrup.

Makes 12 servings.
