Step 2
Peel the sweet potatoes and apples. Slice both into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
Step 3
Grease a medium baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
Step 4
Layer the sweet potato slices and apple slices alternately in the baking dish so they overlap slightly.

Pour the butter mixture evenly over the layered sweet potatoes and apples.
