The original recipe called for 1/4 cup of butter, 3 T brown sugar, and 2 T honey. I thought that would be way too sweet and cut it down. I also used pears in their own juice instead of heavy syrup.

SERVES 6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

4 medium sweet potatoes, peeled, cooked, and mashed
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon grated orange peel
1 (16 ounce) can pear halves, juice reserved

Directions

1
In a greased 1 1/2 quart baking dish, combine the potatoes, 2 T butter, brown sugar, salt, and cinnamon.
2
In a small saucepan, blend the honey, 1 T butter, orange peel, and 3 T of reserved pear juice; bring to a boil.
3
Arrange the pear halves over the potato mixture, then pour the honey mixture over the top.
4
Bake at 350 degrees 30-35 minutes.
