4 Sweet potatoes scrubbed with a vegetable brush under running water, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 Apples washed under cold running water, sliced
½ cup Orange juice
1 tablespoon Butter
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
½ cup raisins or other dried fruit

Wash hands with soap and water.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly oil or spray with nonstick cooking spray a 3-quart casserole dish and set aside.
In a small sauce pan over medium heat, mix together orange juice, butter, cinnamon, and raisins. Heat and continue to stir until the butter is melted.
In a large bowl, mix together the potatoes, apples, and orange juice mixture. Transfer to a casserole dish. Bake, covered, for 1 hour or until the sweet potatoes are fork tender.
Stir the mixture before serving to coat the sweet potatoes and apples with the juices accumulated at the bottom.
