CIDER-GLAZED SWEET POTATOES WITH CRANBERRIES

Though I am not diabetic, the emphasis on lower sugar and higer fiber recipes suits my own tastes. This is an adaptation of a recipe from dlife.com (which obtained it from the American Cancer Research Institute) with changes that do not alter the exchanges. I am planning to try this for Christmas but want it here for safekeeping. Most likely, I will try this with the Splenda brown sugar blend which will actually reduce the carb count.

Time 35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks

1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 cup dried cranberries (quick rough chop)

Steps:

4 medium sweet potatoes, peeled
1 cup Grade A maple syrup
⅓ cup packed brown sugar
1 ½ cups fresh cranberries
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, or to taste
½ teaspoon dried thyme leaves

Steps:

SWEET POTATOES WITH CRANBERRY CHUTNEY



Sweet Potatoes With Cranberry Chutney image

This is an easy and surprisingly delicious way to get a dramatic-looking sweet-potato dish on the table with little fuss. The heat of the jalapeños in the chutney, mixed with aromatic vegetables and the sweetness of the dried fruit, gives the cranberries depth. A dollop of sour cream goes on the halved sweet potato, followed by a generous spoonful of chutney. Make the chutney up to two weeks ahead and keep it in the refrigerator. It also freezes well. Assembly on Thanksgiving is an easy last-minute task.
