These yams have been traditional on my Thanksgiving table for over 20 years. I wouldn't think of making them any other way.

Time 50m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 (17 ounce) cans yams, well drained or 6 medium yams, cooked, peeled, and quartered
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed
1/4 cup half-and-half
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
mini marshmallows (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  • Place yams in large baking dish. Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in medium saucepan, combine corn syrup, sugar, half-and-half, butter, salt, and cinnamon. Stirring constantly, bring to a boil, and boil for 5 minutes. Pour over yams.
  • Bake, basting often, 15 minutes more.
  • (If you have to have marshmallows on your yams, sprinkle mini marshmallows over finished yams, and broil for 3 minutes or so, until melted and nicely browned.).

These yams were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I would probably cut down on the brown sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of yams, but these were actually really good! The sauce was perfect and the yams were cooked perfectly. I would definitely make these again.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my yams didn't turn out very well. They were kind of dry and the sauce was too runny.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The yams are always cooked perfectly and the sauce is rich and flavorful. I highly recommend this recipe!

I followed the recipe exactly and my yams turned out delicious. The only thing I would change is to add a little more salt to the sauce.

These candied yams were a hit at Thanksgiving! The brown sugar and butter sauce was perfectly caramelized and the yams were cooked to perfection. I'll definitely be making these again next year!
