How to Make Sweet Potatoes With Caramelized Apples
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Toss the cubed sweet potatoes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Roast for 50-60 minutes, or until tender, flipping halfway through.
- While sweet potatoes roast, prepare the apples: In a medium bowl, toss sliced apples with 2 tablespoons of sugar.
- Heat remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the apple mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until apples are golden brown and caramelized (about 10-15 minutes).
- Once sweet potatoes are tender, remove from oven and let cool slightly.
- Transfer the roasted sweet potatoes to the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment.
- Add 2 tablespoons of butter and heavy cream. Mix on medium speed until smooth and creamy.
- Stir in applesauce and ginger. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
- Transfer the sweet potato mixture to an oven-safe dish.
- Top with the caramelized apples.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.
- Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
