Directions

Step 1

Peel and cube the sweet potatoes into roughly 1-inch pieces.

In a skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the apple slices, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir to coat the apples evenly.

Add 2 tablespoons of water to the skillet, lower the heat, and cook the apples for 8-10 minutes until they are tender and caramelized. Set aside.

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked sweet potatoes, the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, heavy cream, salt, and cinnamon. Using a hand mixer or potato masher, whip the sweet potatoes until smooth and fluffy.
