Tender sweet potato rounds baked in a buttery brown sugar glaze with cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla until glossy, rich, and caramelized.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Lightly grease a large baking dish and arrange the sweet potato slices in overlapping layers.
Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat.
Stir in the brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
Cook for 2–3 minutes, stirring, until smooth and syrupy.
Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla.
Add the water or orange juice if using.
Pour the warm syrup evenly over the sweet potatoes.
Cover tightly with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil, gently spoon some of the syrup over the potatoes, and bake uncovered for another 25–35 minutes, until very tender and coated in a thick, glossy glaze.
Let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
