Cinnamon Baked Sweet Potatoes / Yams
"NOTHING is better than a hot cinnamon sweet potato! So easy to fix and goes well with any menu plan. This is a family favorite and particularly in the winter when the sweet potatoes are plentiful! This recipe can be doubled easily for more servings."

Ahhhhh, this really hit the spot. The brown sugar/cinnamon is a perfect compliment to the sweet potatoes. Great recipe Seasoned Cook. We absolutely loved this! -
When we tried this recipe the sauce was very good but the potatoes were not soft enough. It might work better if you wrap the yams in foil and cook them at a higher temp.

<p>Thanks for taking the time to stop by My Page! I am married to a quiet, but fun loving guy who cleans up the kitchen!! I have grandchildren who I adore. I am retired from being a paralegal and a real estate agent. I have also been a substitute teacher for the elementary grades in the public school system. All of my recipes are the tried and true type. Many of them have come from my 48 years of cooking, my mother's recipe box or other relatives. I like Taste of Home magazine and I am a big fan of foodnetworkTV. I am a southern girl and enjoy comfort foods!!! I am a big cookbook collector and have been for years. I enjoy baking desserts most of all. I also enjoy games on my laptop, growing flowers, lunches with friends, babysitting grandchildren, photography and traveling. Since life is so short I try to count my blessings each day and give to the less fortunate. I had gotten into a rut on what to cook. Therefore, I am so happy I found the Recipezaar site. Pet Peeve: People with a negative attitude. MY RATING SYSTEM: 5 stars - Excellent in taste. May have minor change. 4 stars - Adjustment in ingredients for flavor. 3 stars - Fair, but not sure whether I would repeat. 2 and 1 stars - I do NOT give.
