Candied YamsWhile not "officially" candy, these are so tasty, they'll satisfy a candy craving! A small amount of margarine and orange juice give these yams lots of flavor but little fat.Ingredients: 3 medium yams (1-1/2 cups) 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed 1 teaspoon flour, sifted 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg 1/4 teaspoon orange peel 1 teaspoon soft tub margarine 1/2 cup orange juice Directions: Cut yams in half and boil until tender but firm (about 20 minutes). When cool enough to handle, peel and slice into 1/4-inch thickness. Combine sugar, flour, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and grated orange peel. Place half of the sliced yams in a medium-sized casserole dish. Sprinkle with spiced sugar mixture. Dot with half the amount of margarine. Add a second layer of yams, using the rest of the ingredients in the same order as above. Add orange juice. Bake uncovered in oven preheated to 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
