Ingredients
- 3 large yams
- 3/4 cup Delicious Orchards Cider
- 1/3 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon flour
Instructions
In a saucepan cook 3 large yams in water to cover for 25-30 minutes, or until almost tender. Peel the yams and halve them lengthwise. In another saucepan combine 3/4 cup cider with 1/3 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar and 2 tablespoons butter. Bring the liquid just to the boiling point and simmer for 10 minutes. Arrange the yams in a buttered baking dish. Pour the syrup over them. Bake the yams in a preheated moderately hot oven at 375 degrees. Spoon the syrup over them 3 or 4 times for 45 minutes. In a small dish mix 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar with 1 tablespoon each of butter and flour and sprinkle the mixture over the yams. Increase heat to 400 degrees and bake the yams, basting them frequently for 15 more.
