« Forward-Thinking Holiday StrategiesInflammation: Too Much of a Good Thing? »

Whether you’re following a special diet or just want to take it easy on Turkey Day, try this simple, lighter take on a classic Thanksgiving favorite.

Total Time
1 hr 15 min

Cook
Yield: 8 Servings
Level: Easy

Ingredients
Cooking spray
3 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes (about 5 medium), peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
1/3 cup honey
1 large egg
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
Kosher salt

Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Mist an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray.
Bring a few inches of water to a boil in a pot with a large steamer basket in place. Put the sweet potatoes in the basket, cover and steam until tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer the potatoes to a bowl and let cool until still warm but not unbearably hot to touch. Add the honey, egg, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, the nutmeg, ginger and 1/2 teaspoon salt; whip with an electric mixer until smooth. Spread the sweet potato mixture in the prepared baking dish.
Mix the brown sugar, pecans and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in a small mixing bowl; sprinkle over the potatoes. Bake until hot and beginning to brown around the edges, 40 to 45 minutes.
