Sweet Potatoes with Spiced Honey Butter, Cranberries and Macadamia Nuts



You will never think of sweet potatoes the same again after you taste this recipe.  It's full of warming spices!!! 


Serves 4

4 large sweet potatoes
1/4 cup butter, softened
1/4 cup raw honey
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon cloves
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup macadamia nuts

Bake the sweet potatoes in a 400 degree oven until a fork slides in easily, about 45 minutes or so.

While the potatoes are baking, combine the butter, honey, spices and sea salt. Set aside.

Roughly chop the dried cranberries and macadamia nuts.

When the potatoes are done, slice in half lengthwise.  Using a fork, break up the interior a bit so the butter can melt throughout.  Top with the butter mixture divided evenly on each half and sprinkle the cranberries and macadamia nuts in top.
