Yield: 12 servings

Ingredients

  1. 6 camote, peeled and sliced 1/2-inch thick
  2. 1 teaspoon salt
  3. 1 cup chopped pineapple
  4. ½ cup brown sugar
  5. 3 tablespoons melted butter
  6. 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Place camote in a large pot and cover with water. Add salt and bring to a boil. Cook over medium heat until crisp-tender, about 10 minutes; do not overcook. Drain and transfer camote to a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  3. Combine pineapple, brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon in a bowl; pour over the camote in the baking dish and toss to coat. Cover with aluminum foil.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven until soft and bubbly, about 1 hour. Remove aluminum foil and bake 15 minutes more.
  5. You may substitute fresh yellow yams for the camote. Feel free to use fresh or canned pineapple.
