Dotted with crimson cranberries, the streusel topping adds a crunchy touch to mashed sweet potatoes. All the sweetness comes from either the potatoes or cranberries, because no sugar is added.

SWEET POTATO CRANBERRY BAKE
My father's mother made this every year for our Thanksgiving dinner. It is not Thanksgiving to me without this dish. I do not like the tartness of most cranberry dishes, and sweet potatoes can be bland by themselves. This dish combines both to make a great all-in-one dish. When I take this dish to another person's home, I bake the first time and add the yams, cover, and then wait to heat until I am at their house.

SWEET POTATOES WITH CRANBERRY CHUTNEY
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.

Tips:
- For the best results, choose sweet potatoes that are about the same size so that they cook evenly.
- If you don't have fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries. Just thaw them before using.
- To make the cranberry sauce, you can use a food processor or a blender. If you don't have either of those appliances, you can chop the cranberries by hand.
- If you want a sweeter cranberry sauce, you can add more maple syrup or honey.
- The sweet potatoes can be baked in a regular oven or a convection oven. If you are using a convection oven, reduce the cooking time by about 20 minutes.
- To make sure the sweet potatoes are cooked through, insert a toothpick or a skewer into the center of the potato. If it comes out clean, the potato is done.
- Serve the sweet potatoes immediately with the cranberry sauce and a dollop of sour cream or yogurt.
