1/2 cup water
4 medium-sized sweet potatoes
3/4 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup water
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
2 Tablespoons butter
1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries

Boil water in large saucepan with tightfitting lid. Add sweet potatoes; steam until potatoes have softened slightly, about 15-20 minutes. Cool slightly. Peel; cut into 1/2-inch slices. Place in greased 2-quart casserole dish.
