    List of Ingredients




    Baked Sweet Potatoes with Orange-Raisin


    8 small sweet potatoes
    1½ cups orange juice
    1 8-ounce can, pineapple chunks in their own juice
    ½ cup raisins
    3 tablespoons packed brown sugar
    2 tablespoons cornstarch

    Recipe




    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Wash and scrub sweet potatoes and pierce with a small knife or fork. Place on a baking sheet and bake until they are tender when pierced, about 45 minutes.

    Sweet potatoes can be microwaved in batches about 6 minutes per pound. When nearly done, combine orange juice and pineapple juice from can in a saucepan. Cut each pineapple chunk in half then add to juices along with raisins and brown sugar. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, whisking often. Mix cornstarch with 3 tablespoons water. Slowly add cornstarch mixture to sauce, whisking constantly.

    Stir until sauce thickens, 30 seconds to 1 minute. To serve, cut each sweet potato open, fluff insides with a fork and top with a generous spoonful of sauce. Offer coconut to add to taste. Makes 8 servings.
