This makes a great fat-free side-dish. You can substitute chopped apples for either the raisins or the cranberries.

SERVES 6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Bake the sweet potatoes in their skins.
  2. 2
    Allow them to cool.
  3. 3
    When the potatoes are cool, slice them in half lengthwise and gently scoop out the flesh, leaving behind enough to hold the shell together.
  4. 4
    In a food processor, grind the cranberries.
  5. 5
    Then add the raisins, walnuts, honey, cinnamon and the reserved sweet potato and process until well mixed.
  6. 6
    Mound the filling back into the sweet potato shells and bake in a 350°F oven for 20 minutes.
  7. 7
    If the potatoes are large, slice each boat in half before serving.
