Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 ½ pounds sweet potatoes
cooking spray
2 tablespoons white sugar
2 teaspoons cornstarch
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground ginger
½ cup orange juice
3 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Pierce skin of sweet potatoes in several spots with a fork.
  • Cook sweet potatoes in microwave oven until just tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Refrigerate sweet potatoes until cooled completely, at least 20 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare a shallow 1 1/2-quart baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Peel sweet potatoes and cut into cubes; spread into prepared baking dish.
  • Mix sugar, cornstarch, salt, and ginger together in a glass measuring cup; pour orange juice into the cup while stirring with a whisk.
  • Heat orange juice mixture in microwave oven for 1 minute, stir, and continue to heat until thickened and smooth, 30 to 60 seconds more; add butter and stir until melted. Pour the liquid over the sweet potatoes.
  • Bake in preheated oven until sweet potatoes are heated through, 15 to 20 minutes.
