This is another recipe that is part of my recipe exchange program w/SusieQusie & is from the 1 of a Kind Cookbook of the Junior League of Mobile, AL. SQ was so proud of herself for having undone a nearly lifelong dislike of sweet potatoes that she put this 1 on my agenda. Thx SQ!
Ingredients:
1 (29 ounce) canned peach halves (drained & syrup reserved)
2 tablespoons butter (at room temp)
2 1/2 cups canned sweet potatoes (or yams in light syrup, drained, heated thru & mashed)
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons orange peel (grated)
2 tablespoons brandy (or peach brandy)
nuts (chopped, topping garnish)
brown sugar (topping garnish)
Directions:
1. Drain peaches & arrange halves in a baking dish w/cut side up (To make more secure, cut a thin slice from the bottom).
2. Cream canned sweet potatoes & butter.
3. Add brown sugar, orange peel, salt & brandy (If needed, use reserved peach syrup to get a smooth consistency).
4. Spoon mixture into peach halves.
5. sprinkle w/chopped nuts + brown sugar
6. bake at 350°F (uncovered) for 15-20 minutes.
