Why Are My Candied Yams Runny?
Candied yams can become runny due to a few reasons. Overcooking the yams could cause them to become mushy, resulting in excess water being released. Similarly, adding too much liquid to the sweet potato mixture or not draining the canned sweet potatoes properly could cause the dish to be runny. Finally, not baking the dish long enough or at a high enough temperature could result in a runny texture.
