Sweet Potato Medallions

 I know everyone always has sweet potato casserole or yams or some sort of sweet potato dish during the holidays, but this is one of my favorite recipes for sweet potatoes, it’s soft, sweet, and melts in your mouth!

Ingredients:

3 lbs sweet potatoes

1 stick butter or more if needed

Light brown sugar

Honey

Pecans (optional)

One a side not, be careful when slicing, the potatoes can break apart. However do not get mad! It still tastes good in irregular shapes haha!

Boil sweet potatoes until cooked but not too soft.  Cool and then peel potatoes leaving whole.  Carefully slice potatoes into ¼ to ½ inch circles.  Place on cookie sheet.   

Place pat of butter on each circle.  Lightly sprinkle sugar on each circle.  Drizzle honey on top (However since honey is a natural sweetener, I usually use less sugar and cover it with honey haha).   

Place cut pecans around the cookie sheet and drizzle them with honey (If you have a nut allergy, don’t use nuts of course, they are not critical). 

Place in oven on broil for about 10 minutes or until potatoes look caramelized.  Remove and serve. If you burn the edges a bit, they surprisingly taste better! And the charcoal is better for your digestive system, which most people do not know!)
