Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium-sized sweet potatoes
  • 1 cup of fresh cranberries (or frozen, thawed)
  • 2 medium apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
  • 1/4 cup of brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter
  • A pinch of salt

Instructions

  2. Once cool, slice the sweet potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop out most of the flesh into a bowl, leaving some around the edges.
  3. Mix in chopped apples, cranberries, brown sugar, cinnamon, butter, and salt until well combined.
  4. Spoon the filling back into each potato half and return to the oven at 350°F (175°C) for another 20 minutes until heated through.
