How to Make Apple Sweet Potato Bake

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Peel and cube sweet potatoes. Toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Spread sweet potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until tender.
  4. While sweet potatoes are baking, peel and chop apples. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until apples are softened but still hold their shape.
  5. In a large bowl, combine the baked sweet potatoes, apple mixture, and pecans. Stir gently to combine.
  6. Pour mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly. Let cool slightly before serving.
