Maple-Glazed
Yams and Cranberries
- 4 pounds yams, peeled,
cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 cup pure maple syrup
- 1/3 cup butter, melted
- 1 1/2 teaspoons grated
orange peel
- 1 (12-ounce) bag fresh
cranberries
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Preheat oven to 350°F
(175°C). Cook yams in large pot of boiling salted water 5
minutes. Drain; transfer to 13 x 9 x 2-inch glass baking dish;
add cranberries. Blend syrup, butter, orange peel and salt in
small bowl; pour over yams and cranberries; toss to coat.
