Ingredients

• 3 sweet potatoes
• 3 tablespoons maple syrup
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon
• 3 apples
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1/4 cup pecans
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 3 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and quartered

• 2 tablespoons coconut sugar (or brown sugar)

Directions

• Place sweet potatoes in a medium pot and cover with water. Bring sweet potatoes to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium and simmer potatoes until very tender, about 15 minutes. Drain potatoes and transfer to a large bowl.
• Whisk melted butter, maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Mash sweet potatoes until smooth, then mash in butter mixture. Spread sweet potatoes in a greased 9x13 baking pan.
• Make the apples: In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, saute apples in butter, sugar, and cinnamon until apples are just barely tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in pecans.
• Spread apple mixture over top of sweet potatoes. Bake sweet potato casserole at 375F 15 minutes until heated through. Enjoy!
