  • 1/4 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp orange zest

  2. Stir together brown sugar and next 5 ingredients; pour over potatoes. Cover with aluminum foil.
  3. Bake at 325° for 45 minutes or until fork-tender. Uncover and bake 5 more minutes or until glaze becomes syrupy.
  4. Make Ahead: Cover and chill cooked potatoes up to 1 day. To reheat, let stand at room temperature 1 hour. Bake, covered with foil, at 350° for 20 minutes.
