How to Make Sweet Potato Apple Toss

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Peel, core, and shred the apples using a box grater with large holes.
  3. Peel and shred the sweet potato using the same grater.
  4. In a large bowl, gently combine the shredded apples, sweet potatoes, honey, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
  5. Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet (cast iron is ideal) over medium heat.
  6. Add the sweet potato and apple mixture to the skillet. Stir to coat with the oil.
  7. Add the water to the skillet.
  8. Cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potatoes begin to soften.
  9. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through.
  10. Remove from oven, stir in chopped nuts or seeds, and serve warm.
