Candied Yams

Recipe Ingredients

1/2 cup	118ml	Orange juice
		= (preferably freshly-squeezed)
1/2 cup	99g / 3.5oz	Natural granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon	1.3ml	Cinnamon
1		Nutmeg
2 tablespoons	30ml	Nonhydrogenated margarine - melted
3 lbs	1362g / 48oz	Sweet potatoes - peeled, and
		Sliced 1/4" thick
1/4 cup	36g / 1.3oz	Finely-chopped walnuts or pecans - (optional topping)

Recipe Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

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. 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 yields 8 or more servings.
