Luau Sweet Potatoes

This is one of the four items I decided to make for our End-of-Summer Luau at Huber

LUAU SWEET POTATOES

  • 1/2 c. packed brown sugar
  • 1/3 c. coarsely chopped macadamia nuts or peanuts
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg or ginger
Combine. In a 12 x 7 1/2 x 2 inch baking dish arrange 5-6 sweet potatoes (2 pounds), cooked, peeled, and cut crosswise into thick pieces and one 8 1/4 ounce can pineapple chunks, well drained. Sprinkle brown sugar mixture on top. Dip with 1/4 cup butter. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 30-40 minutes.
This dish turned out well. A little nutty, not too sweet, good flavor.
