Maple Pecan Sweet Potatoes

 

I got it out of Merilu Henners Healthy Holidays...

 

8 med sweet potatos (3 lbs)

1/4 c. margarine (I use earth balance)

1/3 c. maple sugar

3/4 tsp. salt

1/3 c. chopped pecans

 

HEat the oven to 350F.

Scrub the sweet potatos thoroughly with a vegetable

brush; do not peel. Pierce the potatoes with a fork to

allow steam to escape while they bake. Place the

potatoes directly on the oven rack (I find they " leak "

so I foil wrap them) Bake for 1 hour, or until tender

when pierced with a fork. When the potatoes are cool

enough to handle gently peel off the skins usuing a

paring knife. Cut the potatoes into 1/2 inch slices.

In a large sauce pan over meduim heat, heat the

margarine, maple sugar, 1/4 c. water (I use about 6

squirts of maple syrup in this too!) and salt about 2

minutes stiring constantly, until the mixture is

smooth and bubbly. Add the potatos and pecans and stir

gently until coated. Place in a serving dish and go!

 

I have also just baked it all together instead of

doing it separate and it works too. This way I leave

the skins on...
