My family enjoys glazed sweet potatoes. I boiled my potatoes till almost tender and drained them. I melted the butter and brown sugar in a pan, added the maple syrup and then the sweet potatoes; seasoned with nutmeg and fresh ground pepper. I gently stirred the potatoes until tender and glazed. A great tasting treat!
