Sweet Potato Apple Bake

Sweet Potato Apple BakeThis baked dish makes a lovely potluck offering or side dish to a great vegetarian meal. It’s topped with vegan marshmallows. We used Dandies Air-Puffed Marshmallows and were very impressed with them. They tasted great and melted beautifully.

Serves 4.

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb sweet potatoes (4-5 small)
  • 1 large Granny Smith apple
  • 1/4 c brown sugar, packed
  • 2 Tbsp butter
  • 1 tsp Herbes de Provence*
  • 4-6 standard vegan marshmallows

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and butter an 8-inch baking dish.
  2. Peel and thinly slice sweet potatoes. Peel, core and quarter apple. Cut apple in thin slices.
  3. Place half of sweet potatoes in bottom of prepared baking dish.
  4. Sprinkle with half the brown sugar and half of the Herbes de Provence. Dot with half the butter.
  5. Place all of apple slices evenly in a layer on top.
  6. Cover with remaining sweet potatoes, and sprinkle with remaining brown sugar and Herbes de Provence. Dot with remaining butter.
  7. With kitchen shears, cut each marshmallow into 8 small pieces (or use a handful of vegan mini-mallows.) Set aside.
  8. Cover baking dish tightly with foil and bake 35 minutes.
  9. Remove foil and dot with marshmallows. Bake uncovered for 10-15 minutes or until marshmallows are golden. Serve hot.

  1. We made this recipe twice: once with marshmellows and once without (because we had none in the house). Either way it is good but it is a bit sweeter (and better) with the marshmellows. Very easy and tasty.
