This is FANTASTIC! First try it turned out great and SO delicious!! Everything carmelizes. Easy too. Thanks for sharing it. I did spray oil the pan and used a non stick roaster pan.

a very nice sweet potato recipe. added about a tablespoon of brown sugar, used orange juice instead of amaretto and skipped the nuts. maybe the last two omissions were why this dish, while delicious and able to stand as a side for a regular night, didn't earn rave reviews at my thanksgiving table tonight.

Ok, this is the absolute best way to have sweet potatoes. I made a pretty big batch. It filled up two cookie sheets. I didn't have the amaretto so I added a 4 Tbls. of orange juice. I also added about 3 Tbls. of brown sugar. I didn't have any thyme so I used 3-4 tsps. of a no salt seasoning that has thyme in it (along with a whole bunch of other seasonings and black pepper.) I sprayed the pans and then sprayed the top of the sweet potatoes after I put them down. It was SO YUMMY! My husband and I loved it! My dad loved it too and he didn't think he would. He doesn't like really sweet sweet potato dishes. I've already bought more sweet potatoes so I can make it again. I'm definitely going to make it for thanksgiving. Next time I'll cut the potatoes a bit bigger so they can roast for longer.

I didn't have amaretto, but otherwise followed the recipe. They were slightly overdone, but the flavor is so good.

I am rating this 5 even though I didn't do almost all the steps! All I did was cube the sweet potatoes and put into a zip-loc bag. Added a swirl of olive oil, salt & pepper. Poured out into a 1/4 sheet cake pan that had been sprayed with Pam. I used the same cooking temp and time and they were AWESOME! My DH is very picky and he said they tasted better than the sweet potato fries at the restaurants.. and this is so much healthier. Next time I will cut the taters into french fry shape and do the same thing. Thanks for the method even if I didn't follow the ingredients.

Made this tonight and it was superb. My boyfriend had yams before and wasn't too fond of them but he really enjoyed this recipe. I was worried the amaretto would become overpowering but it was nice and subtle. The almonds just finish the recipe off. Yum!

This was an awesome recipe! I loved the flavor created by cooking the onions with sweet potatoes in Amaretto. I pretty much stuck to the recipe with the one exception of tossing the slivered almonds into the dish twenty minutes before it was done cooking. The flavors in this dish are awesome! I am definitely making it again. Sooo goood...

What a great recipe! I was looking for something nutritious with an autumn flavor, and this was just the ticket. A few changes I made: Like other reviewers suggested, I decreased the amount of dried thyme. I just used what was left in the shaker, probably 1/2-3/4 tsp, and it was plenty. The subtle flavor was wonderful. Also, I subbed orange juice for amaretto, because I'm on a bit of a tight budget and OJ is a more practical choice for my household. Last, I threw in some prunes (sliced in half) because I love them. They're full of iron, they add color contrast to the dish, and they're delicious!

Very tasty!! I substituted the amaretto with orange juice and didn't put almonds in (because I had none). I baked it uncovered for 50 min. It still came out soft... I was hoping it to be crispy. But anywho, this is really really good. I will make it again and again. Will try different baking time to see the best results. Thanks for the recipe!

Delicious and very healthy! Nice combination of flavors. The only change I made on this dish was to bake uncovered for 50 minutes, I like it more when is crispy and well done.

Made this for company sans the amaretto as I didn't have any. They devoured it. Asked for the recipe. Made it again for a Hawaiian themed pot luck with coconut shrimp. Even the kids were devouring it not realizing those were onions!!

This was really quite good, especially the onions! I'm not a huge fan of adding sweetness to sweet potatoes, so I can't give it a 5 star.

What a fantastic recipe!! My family went crazy over these! I will make over and over and over again! The only thing I would change was the amount of thyme used...it was overpowering. I used Nature's Seasoning instead and it was MUCH better!!!

I would give this recipe 10 stars if I could! It has turned into my absolute favorite way to prepare sweet potatoes. I served this for Christmas and it was gone in the blink of an eye! Thanks so much for posting this recipe.

Wonderful! It was better than I thought. My husband loved it too. I did use a little frozen OJ instead of the ammerato and it turned out great.
