We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: After washing, drying, and lightly greasing the potatoes, bake them at 425' F. for about 1 hour.

  • Step 2: When half done, poke once with a fork to prevent bursting.

  • Step 3: The skins should be tender but firm when the potatoes are done. Allow them to cool slightly.

  • Step 4: Heat 2 tablespoons of the butter in a skillet until foamy, add the carrots and sauté over moderately low heat until tender.

  • Step 5: Add the apples and sauté until they soften a bit.

  • Step 6: Peel and cut the slightly cooled sweet potatoes into a fairly large dice and put in bowl.

  • Step 7: Combine with the sautéed carrots, apples, and other ingredients and mix thoroughly.

  • Step 8: Pour into deep oiled casserole, cover, and bake 20-30 minutes in a (preheated) 350' oven.
