Honey Spice Sweet Potatoes

3 lbs. sweet potatoes

1/4 - 1/2 cup honey (to taste)

5 tablespoons butter (or more to taste)

Juice of 1 orange

1/2  teaspoon ground cinnamon (or to taste)

1/2  teaspoon ground ginger (or to taste)

Boil whole sweet potatoes in salted water until tender, 35-40 minutes.  Remove from water and let cool slightly.  When cool enough to handle, remove skins.  Slice sweet potatoes into large bowl. 

Mix in butter, honey &  orange juice and mash potatoes.  Stir in spices, taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

For glazed sweet potatoes, slice cooked sweet potatoes ½ inch thick.  Heat butter and honey in nonstick skillet, adding orange juice and spices when butter is melted, stir until smooth.  Add sliced sweet potatoes and cook over medium-low heat for a few minutes until potatoes are glazed and heated through.
