My Grandma's Candied Yams with Pineapple image

Grandma was always in charge of Thanksgiving dinner in my family. This is my variation on her candied yams (sweet potatoes), and they are the best!

Provided by Food Network

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h35m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch-thick rounds
8 tablespoons (1 stick) salted butter
2 cups granulated sugar
One 20-ounce can crushed pineapple
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cloves
Pinch kosher salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Place the sweet potatoes in a 2-quart baking dish. Set aside.
  • In a medium pot, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Add the sugar and stir until smooth. Drain the pineapple in a strainer, reserving the juice. Stir in about half the pineapple and half the pineapple juice; reserve the rest of the pineapple and juice for another use. Stir in the cinnamon, cloves and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil, remove from the heat and add the vanilla extract. Pour the mixture directly over the sweet potatoes.
  • Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake until the sweet potatoes are just tender, about 45 minutes. Remove the foil and continue to bake until the sweet potatoes are caramelized, 20 to 25 minutes more.
  • Plate and serve immediately. Pour extra sauce from the bottom of the baking dish on top.

Tips:

  • Choose firm and sweet yams for the best texture and flavor.
  • Use a sharp knife to peel and cut the yams to ensure clean and even slices.
  • Soak the yam slices in cold water for 15 minutes before cooking to help remove excess starch and prevent them from sticking together.
  • Use a large baking dish to ensure the yams, apples, and pecans are evenly distributed and have enough space to caramelize.
  • Toss the yams, apples, and pecans with the melted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt to evenly coat them and enhance their flavor.
  • Bake the mixture at a high temperature initially to caramelize the yams and apples, then reduce the temperature to allow them to cook through without burning.
  • Stir the mixture occasionally during baking to ensure even cooking and prevent the yams and apples from sticking to the pan.
  • Add the chopped pecans towards the end of baking to maintain their crunch and prevent them from becoming too soft.
  • Serve the candied yam, apple, and pecan bake warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for a delightful dessert.

Conclusion:

This candied yam, apple, and pecan bake is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish or a dessert. The combination of sweet yams, tart apples, crunchy pecans, and warm spices creates a harmonious and flavorful dish that is sure to impress. The caramelized exterior and tender interior of the yams and apples, along with the nutty crunch of the pecans, make this bake a delightful treat. Whether served at a holiday gathering, a family dinner, or as a special dessert, this dish is sure to be a crowd-pleaser.
