This is the ONLY recipe I use. Made it AGAIN tonight and a FULL THANKSGIVING DINNER AGAIN TONIGHT 12.3.22. We traveled out of town and he only had 1 serving No left overs. He said may I have another Thanksgiving meal. What!! Honey give me a minute DONE. Anything for my sweetheart of 25 years. He loves your recipe. Thank you and Happy Holidays.
I would just add a tablespoon of molasses. Up here in the north we use a lot of molasses so it could be added to the yams instead of dark brown sugar and would give it a depth of flavor that it could use.
I just made these and they really came out candied. Lol. They remind me of the way my aunty makes the. I loved this recipe. It was easy to follow and didn’t take forever to make. Thank you ♥️
Aww yessss!! I love when you all try my recipes and they come out bomb lol 🙌🏾, so glad the recipe was quick and easy for you to follow, there’s nothing like a delicious, quick and easy recipe. Now I want to make some Sunday 😫😂..I’m so glad you enjoyed them! Thanks for watching and supporting luv! 🤗❤️
@@DivaInAApron yes ma’am. I appreciate you. Even my husband enjoyed it in which he is very critical about food. So if he likes it I know it was good. Lol. Again, thank you for the recipe. Looking forward to trying more of your recipes. ♥️
@@MGJ1190 lol I’m so glad you and your family enjoyed them! And yess luv, if you try another recipe definitely let me know how it turns out, thanks again for the luv hun! ❤️😙
@@sherryssweetsensationz2623 lol aww thanks luv!! I’m making some this weekend, sometimes I add pecans and it taste so good!! I’m so glad you’re enjoying this recipe! 😊🤗
@@MrSteady36 hey luv! Hmm you might have used too much sugar and it absorbed most of the water, and it probably candied too quick before the potatoes got done, which could cause the leathery/hard texture.
@@MrSteady36 Ok let me know how it turns out, remember to keep flipping the potatoes from the bottom to the top once it starts to boil, until the sugar gets mixed in and all the potatoes are covered in glaze, they should look syrupy and shiny, then turn the heat down between medium and low. They get done quick, don’t worry it took me a few tries 😩 practice makes perfect, you will get it 🙌🏾
Beautiful presentation. Question how long was the cooking time? and how much sugar was used in total? I believe I counted 2 1/2 cups but I am not sure. Thank you for sharing!!!
Hey luv thanks!! The total cooking time was about 25-30 minutes, but it depends on how many sweet potatoes and layers you have. As far as the amount of sugar, I used about 4 Cups of sugar, I usually don’t measure 😩.. but you will know when you have enough because the sweet potatoes will start to look very shiny and slick. But it’s always best to have more sugar than not enough, again thanks for watching! If you make them let me know how they turn out 🤗
Lol Okkk Yesss!!🙌🏾..So glad they came out good!! They are so addicting, I be wanting them every Sunday. I purchase a lot of my aprons online, or hobby lobby, home goods, every department store I go into I check for aprons 😩..thanks for watching and supporting luv!!🤗
No cinnamon for me and only fresh nutmeg and vanilla. They also need salt! Oh I just remembered I have some Ceylon cinnamon so I might use 1/4 teaspoon it is very different from the cinnamon you buy from McCormick or the dollar store. I got mine and slices like yours because whatever's leftover I make little yam Patty t a r t s. I use a muffin tin and then I add a custard and they are delicious!
Sounds delicious luv! Good thing about cooking there’s really no wrong or right way to prepare a dish, I’m always down for trying different variations of a recipe, thanks for watching 😉
Why the use of cheap nasty bottled nutmeg and using the fresh as well? I don't use anything but fresh and have been using fresh for more than 10 years. Also those nutmeg balls will keep forever put in some sort of an airtight jar like even though small pickle jar or anything glass with a lid. They can't go bad when they are whole or even cut into. :-) just an FYI and a question
Those are NOT YAMS !! They are SWEET POTATOES !!! BIG DIFFERENCE !!! ARE SWEET POTATOES YAMS ? NO !!! they are NOT the same !!!

Yams are big tuberous roots that are a Monocot ( a plant having one embryonic seed leaf ) and belong to the genus Dioscorea.

Sweet potatoes are a Dicot ( a plant having two embryonic seed leaves ) and are from the Convolvulacea or Morning Glory family. In the United States today it is only possible to find Yams in some urban Hispanic markets. However in the U.S. , Sweet Potatoes have a relatively moist texture and orange-colored flesh. Compared to Sweet Potatoes, Yams are a lot more starchier and drier with a white to light yellowish colored flesh, whereas sweet potatoes are typically sweeter and only orange colored flesh. THE GREAT YAM SCAM: TYPES OF SWEET POTATOES Both the Yam and the Sweet Potato DO grow underground and have yellowish-orange flesh, but there is where the similarity ends.Yet the two became entwined in this country by household vernacular in part through the work of a publicity campaign. Earlier this century, sweet potato promoters attached the word Yam to the deep orange, moist-fleshed varieties of sweet potatoes and left the words sweet potato to the smaller, yellowish, and drier-fleshed varieties.

Mmmm that’s how I like mine very candied 😋

A tip: mix all your dry ingredients- white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and combine them well. It will make the layering easier.

Why the use of cheap nasty bottled nutmeg and using the fresh as well? I don't use anything but fresh and have been using fresh for more than 10 years.

To much sugar but look delicious
