Preparation time: 15 min
Cooking time: 1 hr
Serves 10
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 large sweet potatoes (about 2 pounds), washed, ends removed and diced into 1-inch squares
1/2 cup spiced glaze (see below)
For spiced glaze
1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1 cup 100% Pure Cane Syrup
1/2 cup dark molasses
1/2 cup dark corn syrup
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 cup water
Directions:
Combine the sugar, cane syrup, molasses, corn syrup, nutmeg, cloves, allspice, and cinnamon in a medium-size bowl and mix well.
In another bowl, dissolve the mustard in the water, then add to the spice mixture. Blend well.
Use immediately or store in an air tight container in the refrigerator until ready to use.
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Grease a 2-quart glass rectangular baking dish with butter.
Toss the sweet potatoes in a large mixing bowl with the glaze to coat evenly.
Pour them into the prepared pan and roast until fork-tender, about 1 hour.
Serve warm.
