Candied sweet potatoes may just be the easiest Thanksgiving side dish you'll ever make (well, unless your cranberry sauce comes from a can). These sweet potatoes are simply sliced and baked in a warm, spiced maple and bourbon glaze until fork tender and perfectly caramelized. You can even make it in advance to save valuable time on the big day! Of course, this sweet potato side dish is so good, you'll be making it year-round.
