sweet potatoes recipe

Maple syrup and tarragon are wonderful enhancements for the flavor of sweet potatoes. It's an especially delicious addition to the Thanksgiving meal.

Maple and Tarragon Sweet Potatoes

maple syrup

vegan buttery spread

orange juice

cinnamon

salt

tarragon

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Arrange the sweet potato slices in overlapping rows in an oiled shallow 2-quart casserole.

In a small bowl, combine the syrup, Earth Balance, juice, cinnamon, and salt. Pour evenly over the potatoes. Sprinkle the tarragon over the top.

Cover with lid or foil and bake, covered, for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are readily pierced with a fork, but are still firm.

Bake for 20 to 25 minutes longer, uncovered, or until glazed and golden around the edges. Cover and keep warm until needed, then serve from the casserole.

Here's a lightened version of the American holiday classic, candied yams, featuring sweet potatoes sweetened with orange juice and gently spiced with cinnamon

Contemporary Candied Sweet Potatoes

orange juice (preferably freshly-squeezed)

maple syrup or agave nectar

cinnamon (or more, to taste)

nutmeg

potatoes

walnuts

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

Combine all the ingredients except the last two in a large mixing bowl. Stir until well combined.

Add the sliced potatoes and stir well, then transfer to a shallow 1 1/2 -quart round or 9- by 13-inch baking dish.

Bake, covered, until the sweet potatoes are just tender, about 40 minutes.

Stir once or twice during that time to distribute the liquid over the potatoes.

Don't worry if the potatoes break apart. If desired, sprinkle the nuts over the sweet potatoes at this time.

Bake uncovered for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, or until the glaze thickens. Cover and keep warm until ready to serve.

This recipe is really perfect! Everyone at my house loved it!

These sweet potatoes look so inviting! A great idea for the Thanksgiving dinner!

Oh my goodness the garlic and honey on these sweet potatoes is such the perfect combination!

I love this sweet and savory take on sweet potatoes. You can do so much more with them than just make casserole!

I made these the very first week I was trying to eat vegetarian. Not only did I sail through the first several days because I had these already prepped and ready for any meal- but when (inevitably) I wobbled and ate a cheeseburger, I was able to get right back on the horse the next day. Today I added some fresh ginger and some whole pistachio’s ( near the end of cooking).  I’m generally not a fan of rosemary in savory dishes, but they add an exquisite brightness to this slightly sweet and savory dish!  Thank you for this dish!

Served with ham for Easter. Absolutely delicious

Such a great side dish and perfect for fall! Paired perfectly with some grilled chicken; yum!

This is so good and delish!! Such a huge hit at my house!

Yum! These roasted sweet potatoes are exactly what I need!
