Ingredients

- 4 large sweet potatoes
- 1 tbsp butter
- ¼ cup finely chopped onion
- 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
- ⅓ cup maple syrup
- ¼ cup cranberry juice
- ¼ tsp salt, divided
- ½ cup chopped walnuts, toasted
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- ¼ tsp pepper

Method

1. Preheat oven to 200°C/Fan 180°C/Gas Mark 6. Scrub sweet potatoes; pierce several times with a fork. Bake 1 hour or until tender.

2. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, heat butter over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook and stir until tender. Stir in cranberries, syrup, cranberry juice and ⅛ tsp salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, 10 - 15 minutes or until berries pop, stirring occasionally. Stir in walnuts and mustard; heat through.
