Number Of Ingredients 11

3 cups firmly packed unseasoned mashed sweet potatoes (about 3 pounds) (see headnote)
1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter, melted
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons finely grated orange zest
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg or 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, or to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 350° F. Butter a 2-quart casserole and set aside.
  • 2. Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl, beating until smooth. Taste for salt and pepper and adjust as needed.
  • 3. Scoop into the casserole, spreading to the edge and roughing the surface. Bake uncovered on the middle oven shelf for about 45 minutes or until tipped with brown.
  • 4. Serve hot as an accompaniment to roast turkey, chicken, or pork. Good, too, with pork chops.
