6 med. sweet potatoes or yams (I use yams)
2 med. apples, sliced and cut in pieces
1/2 c. firmly packed brown sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon (more or less)
1/2 c. raisins
1/4 c. butter (more or less)

Wash and cook sweet potatoes in boiling water until fork tender. Peel and cut in crosswise slices 1/4-inch thick. Butter a 2-quart casserole and layer sweet potatoes, apples, raisins. Sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon. Dot with butter. Repeat layering. Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes.
