Number of Servings:

Ingredients:

  1. 3 - large sweet potatoes
  2. 1/4 cups - raisins
  3. 1/2 cups - sesame seeds
  4. 1/2 teaspoons - cinnamon
  5. 1 cups - cranberries
  6. 1/2 cups - English walnuts
  7. 2 tablespoons - honey

Directions:

Cook or bake 3 whole sweet potatoes in their jackets until just tender. Cut in half, lengthwise. Spoon out the centers of the sweet potatoes into a bowl, leaving a shell about 1/4-inch thick.

With the steel blade in place, process the cranberries in a food processor with 3 five second on/off turns. Add the raisins, walnuts, sesame seeds, honey, cinnamon, and the reserved sweet potatoes and process for 2 five-second on-off turns or until ingredients are well combined.

Mound the mixture in the sweet potato skins, and place the boats in a baking dish. Bake at 350 degrees F for 20 minutes.
