Apricot Yams image

I believe this recipe came from a "Southern Living" cookbook. Everyone raved over the taste. It's a great recipe for the holiday season. The yams I used were huge, so I adjusted the portion size. You could probably stretch this out even further as a side dish with all the other foods you will be serving.

These yams were a disaster. They were overcooked and the glaze was too runny. I would not recommend this recipe.

I followed the recipe exactly and the yams turned out undercooked. I had to cook them for an additional 30 minutes.

These yams were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar in the glaze next time.

I was a bit skeptical about this recipe, but I'm so glad I tried it. The yams were cooked perfectly and the apricot glaze was amazing. I will definitely be making this recipe again.

These apricot yams are amazing! I made them for my family last night and they were a hit. The yams were perfectly cooked and the apricot glaze was delicious. I will definitely be making this recipe again.
