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 a crispy doughnut, fry the doughnuts in hot oil (375°F) for 2-3 minutes per side.
- To make sure the doughnuts are cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the doughnuts are done.
- For a sweeter doughnut, roll the doughnuts in cinnamon sugar while they are still warm.
- For a healthier doughnut, bake the doughnuts instead of frying them. Bake at 350°F for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
- To make a vegan doughnut, use plant-based milk and butter in the recipe.
