This is great for Thanksgiving Dinner
3 pounds sweet potatoes baked and sliced thin (i use the microwave for ~3 min per potato)
3/4 stick unsalted butter – about 3 oz
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup honey
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Bake the sweet potatoes in the middle of the oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until tender. Let them cool.
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them diagonally into 1/4-inch slices, and place them in a buttered 14-inch casserole dish.
In a saucepan, cook the remaining ingredients over medium heat, stirring, until the sugar is dissolved. Spoon the mixture over the sweet potatoes and bake in the middle of the oven, basting occasionally, for 30 minutes.
This can be can be prepared uncooked 1 day ahead and kept covered and refrigerated.
Once it is cooked, put the gratin under a preheated broiler (about 4 inches from the heat) until the edges are browned lightly.
Enjoy
