Directions
Carmelized Roasted Sweet Potatoes, I make these roasted potatoes often, especially in autumn and winter They’re so yummy that you will forget how good they are for you They pair well with ham, turkey or chicken I sometimes even make these just especially for lunch , So glad no one else in my family likes sweet potatoes; I get these all for myself! Nice balance between the sweet of the potatoes and the tang of the balsamic Will be making these again and again! Going into my Best of 2014 Cookbook! Made for Everyday Holiday

in a Large Skillet Over Low Heat, Add 3-4 Tablespoons Olive Oil Until Heated. Add the Sliced Onions. Saute, Stirring Every So Often For 20 Minutes or Until They Caramelize. (note: It Is Very Important to Saute the Onions Over Low Heat, to Avoid Them from Burning). Once They Are Caramelized, Add the Remaining 3 to 4 Tablespoons Maple Syrup and the Balsamic Vinegar. Stir to Mix Flavors. Season With Salt and Pepper to Taste. Continue Sauteing Until Onions Are Dark Golden Brown and Fully Caramelized, About 5-10 Minutes More. Add Water, 1 Tablespoon at a Time, If Pan Becomes Dry. (refer to Tidbit Below). |

Tidbit: Note That Onions Will Cook Down Alot; Decreasing the Volume. Depending on the Power of Your Stove Top and the Amount of Onions You Have in the Pan, It May Take a Longer Time For Onions to Be Fully Carmelized. They Should Be Dark (not Burned) and Cooked Way Down. |

Another Tidbit: If not Using Freshly Ground Pepper in This Recipe, It Makes a Big Enough Difference. the Store Prepared Ground Doesn't Have as Much Depth. |
