Reduce the oven heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Stir brown sugar, orange juice, and nutmeg with the melted butter to dissolve the sugar completely; bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and cook until the liquid thickens into a syrup, 10 to 15 minutes.

Peel cooled yams. Cut yams into bite-sized chunks; arrange in a single layer in a 13x9-inch baking dish. Drizzle syrup over the yams.

Bake in the preheated oven, twice opening the oven to spoon syrup over the yams, until the chunks are fork-tender, about 35 minutes. Arrange marshmallows over the yams and continue baking until the marshmallows are puffy and browned, about 10 minutes more.
