INGREDIENTS

5 cups Canned Sweet Potatoes (yams), drained 
1 cup Canned Crushed Pineapple  
1 cup Golden Raisins  
1 cup Brown Sugar  
1/4 cup Granulated Sugar  
1/4 tsp. Ground Cinnamon  
20 Mission® 6.5" Grill-Ready™ Par-Baked Flour Tortillas (09301)  
8 Tbsp. Unsalted Butter , melted 
3/4 cup  Corn Syrup  

DIRECTIONS

1.) Place yams, pineapple (with liquid), raisins, sugars and cinnamon in a heavy pan. Cook on medium flame for about 15 minutes or until very soft and well cooked. Mash until mixture is smooth.

2.) Brush center of each tortilla with butter leaving a one-inch border. Place mashed filling (about 1.5 oz) on one half of the tortilla. Brush the edges with water and fold over to make a half circle. Seal edges by pressing firmly with the tines of a fork. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

3.) Brush exterior with corn syrup.

4.) For best results, bake in an impinger oven set at 475ºF for two minutes. Empanadas may also be baked in a convection oven set at 425ºF for five minutes or until golden.
