Ingredients

Scale

Sweet Potato Mixture:

  • 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 2 apples (such as Honeycrisp or Fuji), cored and chopped
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Optional Topping:

  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Prepare the sweet potato mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweet potato cubes and apple chunks. Drizzle with olive oil and maple syrup, then sprinkle with cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Toss well to coat everything evenly.
  3. Roast the mixture: Spread the mixture in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast for 30 to 35 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until the sweet potatoes are tender and caramelized.
  4. Add optional topping: If using, sprinkle chopped pecans over the top during the last 5 minutes of roasting.
  5. Serve: Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • For extra sweetness, drizzle with a little extra maple syrup before serving.
  • This dish pairs well with roasted chicken or turkey.
  • You can substitute chopped walnuts for pecans if preferred.
