Ingredients

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly coat a 13-by-9-inch (3-quart) baking dish with cooking spray. Stir brown sugar, butter, hot water, cinnamon, vanilla, salt, pepper and cardamom together in a large bowl. Add sweet potatoes and toss to fully coat. Shingle the sweet potatoes in the prepared baking dish. Drizzle any remaining brown sugar mixture over the top.
