Start by peeling and quartering your potatoes. Add quartered sweet potatoes to a 2-quart saucepan of lightly salted water. You want your potatoes covered with water. Place a lid on the pan.
Boil the potatoes on high heat for about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and pour into a colander.
Use the same saucepan and melt the butter. Add the brown sugar and maple syrup. Stir until melted. Add the orange juice, cinnamon, nutmeg and a pinch of salt. Stir.
Spread sweet potatoes evenly in a 9 by 13 inch casserole dish. Pour spiced orange juice mixture over the sweet potatoes.
Bake uncovered at 350F for 30 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
