These yams have been traditional on my Thanksgiving table for over 20 years. I wouldn't think of making them any other way. Ingredients:
2 (17 ounce) cans yams, well drained or 6 medium yams, cooked, peeled, and quartered |
1/2 cup light corn syrup |
1/2 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed |
1/4 cup half-and-half |
2 tablespoons butter |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon |
mini marshmallows (optional) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
2. Place yams in large baking dish. Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, in medium saucepan, combine corn syrup, sugar, half-and-half, butter, salt, and cinnamon. Stirring constantly, bring to a boil, and boil for 5 minutes. Pour over yams.
4. Bake, basting often, 15 minutes more.
5. (If you have to have marshmallows on your yams, sprinkle mini marshmallows over finished yams, and broil for 3 minutes or so, until melted and nicely browned.).
