Crockpot candied sweet potatoes: Simple, hands-off holiday side dish, freeing up oven space.
Ingredients:
  • 5 cups yams, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 1.25 cups water
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 0.75 cup pineapple juice
  • 0.25 cup salted butter, cubed
  • 2 tablespoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons water
Instructions:
  • Prepare the slow cooker by lining it with a slow cooker liner or spraying it with cooking spray.
  • Layer the yams at the bottom of the slow cooker and generously drizzle with water, brown sugar, pineapple juice, butter, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Gently mix everything together to ensure the yams are coated evenly in the delicious sauce.
  • Simmer gently for 2 hours, then give it a good stir.
  • Combine cornstarch and water in a small bowl to create a slurry, then mix into the slow cooker until well combined.
  • Simmer until the yams are tender and the sauce has thickened, approximately 1 more hour.
