Ingredients

2-1/2 pounds sweet potatoes1/2 cup packed brown sugar1/3 cup chopped walnuts1 teaspoon ground cinnamon1/8 teaspoon salt3 cups thinly sliced peeled tart apples4 tablespoons butter, divided

Preparation

Place the sweet potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 30 minutes or until tender. Drain. When cool enough to handle, peel potatoes and cut into 1/2-in. slices.

Preheat oven to 375°. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, walnuts, cinnamon and salt; set aside. In a large skillet, saute apples in 2 tablespoons butter until tender, 3-4 minutes.

In a greased 1-1/2-qt. baking dish, layer half the sweet potatoes, apples and brown sugar mixture. Repeat layers.

Dot with remaining butter. Cover and bake 30 minutes. Uncover; bake until bubbly, 15 minutes longer.
