Amaretto Yams Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Toss first 6 ingredients in a shallow medium-sized baking dish.
• Cover; bake 30 minutes. Uncover; bake 20 minutes more. Sprinkle with almonds

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, cover sweet potatoes with water. Boil until tender; drain.
• Remove the skins from the sweet potatoes and arrange them in a greased 2 quart baking dish.
• Process the sugar, buttermilk, butter, eggs, amaretto, vanilla, cinnamon, and baking soda in a blender until smooth. Stir in pecans.
• Spoon pecan mixture over sweet potatoes. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Make a series of 1/8-inch slices along each potato, slicing 2/3 of the way through.
• Stir together the butter, oil, thyme, garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Rub the potatoes all over with the mixture, getting in between the slices.
• Place on the baking sheet and roast until the center of the potatoes are tender and the outside is crisp, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Halfway through the roasting time, remove the potatoes from the oven and run a fork gently across the tops of the potatoes, using light pressure, to fan the slices and separate them from one another.
• Meanwhile, stir the yogurt and scallions with a pinch salt and a pinch pepper. Serve the sauce with the potatoes.
