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 sweetener (I use 1/2 cup brown rice syrup and 1/2 cup maple syrup, or 1 cup brown sugar)
1/2 cup vegan margarine (I use Earth Balance)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ginger
1/4 teaspoon cloves
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (I use freshly grated)
1 cup chopped walnuts

What you do: 

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Steam the sweet potatoes for 10 minutes or until slightly tender, but not cooked through. Rinse with cold water and drain thoroughly. Place the sweet potatoes in a large mixing bowl with the apples.
2. In a frying pan, combine remaining ingredients, except walnuts. Boil for at least 1 minute, then add walnuts. Boil for at least another minute.
3. Pour mixture over potatoes and apples and mix well. Bake for 45 minutes uncovered.

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.

This was sooo good! I added a sprinkle of raisins and cut the walnuts down just a little. Thanks for a great recipe.
