Ingredients

  • 1 large sweet potato
  • 3 Pink Pearl apples, or any crisp, juicy fall apple
  • olive oil
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • Dash nutmeg and ground cloves
  • 2 tbsp butter

Instructions

  1. Peel the sweet potato and slice it in a mandolin or food processor into very thin (1/8th to 1/16th-inch) slices. Next core the apple and slice it the same way as the sweet potato.

  2. Grease a small casserole pan with olive oil. Carefully stack the sweet potato and apple slices into alternating layers and arrange the layers in a circular or line pattern in your casserole dish. Drizzle with honey, sprinkle spices on top, and dot with butter.

  3. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour, or until sweet potato slices are tender.
