Sweet Potatoes with Apples and Walnuts

What you need: 

2 large or 4 smaller sweet potatoes, peeled and diced

2 Granny Smith apples, peeled and diced

1 cup raw sugar

1/4 cup water

1/2 cup coconut milk

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1 teaspoon sea salt

1/4 teaspoon ginger

1/4 teaspoon cloves

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (I use freshly grated)

1 cup walnuts

What you do: 

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Place sweet potatoes and apples in a baking dish and bake for 1/2 hour, or until sweet potatoes and apples are soft.

In a saucepan, combine sugar and water. Gently stir and cook until the mixture turns a dark amber color, but don't let it burn! Slowly stir in coconut milk. Remove from heat and stir in remaining ingredients. Pour into sweet potato mixture and mix well.

I'll be making this for Thanksgiving, but one cup of brown sugar sounds like so much!

i made this recipe for "test" thanksgiving and i realized i had no ginger or walnuts. i think it definitely needs the nut for texture, but it was really good and kind of reminds me of baked apples. i may double the glaze for thanksgiving and am for sure putting the nuts in.

AMAZING.  I reduced the sugar to 1/2 a cup (turbinado), and used almonds instead of walnuts (ran out!).  This satisfied every craving I've ever had!  Sweet, salty, buttery - very rich.  My young daughters couldn't get enough.  This was yummy comfort food for a cool September evening.
