Steps:
- For the yams: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Toss the yams with the oil in a medium bowl and sprinkle with salt and pepper. 2. Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the brown sugar, honey, cinnamon, vanilla and nutmeg and cook, stirring, until the mixture comes to a simmer and the sugar dissolves, 4 minutes. Remove from the heat, add to the yams and toss to coat. Spread the yams and all the sauce evenly into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Cover tightly with foil and bake until beginning to become tender, 30 minutes.
- For the crunch: Meanwhile, pulse the gingersnaps in a food processor until they are fine crumbs with a few larger pieces. Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in the sugar, butter and flour to combine. Form crumbles in several sizes using your hands and chill in the refrigerator. Remove the foil from the yams and stir to coat with the sauce. Continue baking uncovered until the potatoes are tender and the sauce has thickened, 20 to 25 minutes. Top with gingersnap crumbles and bake until the yams are very tender and the topping is nicely browned, about 10 minutes longer. Serve.
BAKED YAMS WITH GINGER AND HONEY
This is a very flavorful recipe. I have had people that don't even care for yams - love these! For years I never added the cardamom (it's very pungent) but I finally added it this year - and WOW - it really makes the flavor POP!

Tips:
- Choose yams that are firm and have smooth skin. Avoid yams with blemishes or soft spots. - To easily remove the yam skin, pierce it with a fork and microwave for 1-2 minutes. The skin will then peel off easily. - You can substitute honey with other sweeteners like maple syrup or agave nectar. - To make the yams even more flavorful, add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the ginger-honey mixture. - For a crispy topping, sprinkle some chopped nuts or granola on the yams before baking.Conclusion:
Baked yams with ginger and honey are a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With their sweet and spicy flavor, these yams are sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
