CANDIED YAMS WITH MARSHMALLOWS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Sweetening: In a bowl, combine the butter, sugar, 1/2 cup of corn syrup, salt, cinnamon extract, nutmeg, lemon juice and apple cider. Reserve about 2 tablespoons.
• Steaming the yams: Peel the yams and dice them into 1-1/2-inch pieces. It's preferable not to cut them too small as they might fall apart. Fill a pot with cold water until it barely touches the steamer level. It's important to start with cold water so the yams cook evenly. Place the yams in the steamer, bring to a boil and reduce the heat to medium-high. Steam for about 8-10 minutes. The yams should be fork-tender but still firm. Remove from the steamer. Let them cool a little. Once the yams are cool enough to handle and have''dried'' (with no excess water), sprinkle with flour. Add the sweet mixture. Toss well.
• Baking yams: Place the yams in individual greased ramekins (or in a large baking dish). Bake for about 20-25 minutes. Toss halfway through the baking process. Drizzle with the remaining tablespoon of corn syrup and the 2 tablespoons of sweet mixture. Cook for another 20 minutes.
• Assembly time: Top the ramekins with mini-marshmallows. Place in the oven for about 2-3 minutes until they begin to melt and are slightly golden.
• Serve immediately.
• Enjoy!
