I have no words for this one – except the fact it’s requested at every family get together. Republicans AND democrats can agree on this one! And you gotta say the name sexy style The first time I saw it and tried to make it (failed miserably) was a Barbara Walters special and Jody Faster was demonstrating it because she made it every year. You can use real sugar in place of the Splenda for some extra Holiday calories!
Special tools to help you along:
An Orange Peeler! A few years ago I peeled the oranges by hand and it took FOREVER! Get this cheap tool, you’ll thank me! They are sold pretty much anywhere.
What you need:
6 Oranges
3 cups cooked, mashed sweet potatoes
1 cup Splenda, no calorie sweetener, granulated
1 cup Splenda brown sugar blend
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup butter, softened, divided
1/2 teaspoon all-purpose flour
halved pecans
What you do:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Cut the oranges in half (using the peeler if you have one) and scoop the fruit out leaving a shell
3. Combine sweet potatoes, sugar, orange juice, eggs, vanilla extract, 1/2 cup butter in a large bowl. Spoon mixture into orange shells. Place in a deep casserole dish.
4. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine remaining 1/2 cup butter, brown sugar, flour and pecans. Cook until sugar dissolves in melted butter. Spoon over oranges.
5. Fill casserole dish with water to cover the bottom of the oranges, about 1/2 inch
6. Bake 30 minutes.
