New Recipe: Brown Sugar Yams

Happy Tasty Tuesday Everyone!
I have another simple but delicious recipe to share with you all today. I realized that I post a lot of dinner dishes but I never really highlight any of the side dishes I make to go with the meals. Typically on Sundays I always make a big dinner with all the fixings. Whenever I bake a ham I always do spinach, apple sauce and brown sugar yams. Its a fun twist on the traditional potato and they can be baked in the oven right along with the ham!

Ingredients:
  • 2-3 yams depending on how many people you are serving. (I use 2 large yams or 3 small yams to serve 3 people).
  • 1 stick of salted butter
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar

Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  2. Melt butter in microwave, once melted add brown sugar to create a syrup mixture.
  3. Cut up yams into squares, place in baking dish and pour brown sugar mixture on top.
  4. Stir to coat yams in mixture.
  5. Bake for 1 hour, until yams are soft, stirring yams every 20 minutes.
  6. Enjoy!
