Questions & Replies

what if I don't have brown sugar? -
Do I add 1/2 cup of liquid per 40 oz can of yams? That would be 1 full cup since the recipe calls for 80 oz right? Just want to be sure. Thanks!! -
Do I cover during baking time
-
What size casserole dish is recommended? -
Is this two 40 oz cans for a total of 80 ounces OR is this two cans of yams to equal 40 ounces? The confusion comes from the fact that they put 40 ounces within parentheses. Also, what size casserole dish is recommended?

It was great. The only thing I would change is to mix the cinnamon, Brown sugar, and nutmeg into the juice prior to pouring over the yams. When I sprinkled those ingredients over the top of the yams it was very difficult to stir them up and mix them well.

Made it for Thanksgiving, left out the nutmeg as it's not a family favorite spice. Family loved it! -
These were super simple to make and delicious! I added a generous sprinkling of cinnamon to mine. I will definitely be making them again. Thanks for posting!

Mix spices into liquid before adding it back in. -
Definitely easy, definitely quick. This turned out perfect. There's no reason to go through any more trouble to fix this yummy dish. Though I did make a few minor changes. First, I used two cans of yams (80oz). Instead of just raisins, I used a combo of golden raisins, raisins, and cranberries (1/2 cup), but used the same amount as the recipe calls for brown sugar and marshmallows. Awesome!
