# What You'll Need:
→ Vegetables
01 - 3 pounds yams (sweet potatoes), peeled and cut into 1-inch rounds
→ Brown Butter & Sage
02 - 8 tablespoons unsalted butter
03 - 10 fresh sage leaves, chopped
→ Candied Glaze
04 - 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
05 - 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
06 - 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
07 - 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
08 - 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
09 - 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
10 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
# How To Make It:
01 - Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Arrange yam rounds in a single layer in the prepared baking dish.
02 - In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Cook, swirling often, until butter turns golden brown and smells nutty, approximately 3-4 minutes. Immediately add chopped sage and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
03 - Remove saucepan from heat. Whisk in brown sugar, maple syrup, orange juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and vanilla extract until smooth.
04 - Pour brown butter-sage glaze evenly over yams, tossing gently to coat thoroughly.
05 - Cover baking dish tightly with aluminum foil. Bake for 30 minutes.
06 - Remove foil and baste yams with pan juices. Bake uncovered for an additional 15 minutes, or until yams are tender and glaze thickens.
07 - Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh sage if desired.
