These were a popular Thanksgiving favorite growing up and continue to be in my home. My kids LOVE them, even my guy with texture issues. They're practically a dessert! You can adjust the brown sugar and butter to make them a little healthier. Serves 8.
Candied Yams
salt and pepper, to taste
1/2 c butter
3/4-1 c packed brown sugar
bag of marshmallows, large or small
1. Place yams in large steamer (or boil them if you must). Steam about 30 minutes, or until knife enters the largest yam easily. OR steam them in pressure cooker for 10 minutes. Let cool and peel.
2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Chop yams into bite-sized pieces and place in 9x13 baking dish. Sprinkle yams generously with salt and pepper.
2. Cut butter into small pieces (1/2 Tbsp. or so) and place evenly over yams. Crumble brown sugar evenly over top of yams. Top with marshmallows. Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until marshmallows are melted and start to turn golden brown.
