Another perfectly sweet dish for your Rosh Hashana dinner table.
2 Tbsp unsalted butter, for greasing pan
3 large sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/4 inches thick
3 large cooking apples, peeled, cored, and sliced 1/4 inches thick
Kosher salt and pepper to taste
Thyme, ideally fresh
1/2 cup maple syrup
3/4 cup apple cider
2 ounces unsalted butter
Preheat oven to 350°C.
Grease two large, shallow baking dishes with butter. Arrange the sweet potato and apple slices in the dishes.
In a medium saucepan, combine maple syrup, apple cider, butter, and salt. Simmer over moderate heat for 8 minutes until reduced slightly. Pour the mixture over the slices in each baking dish and cover securely with foil.
Bake in the centre of the oven for 50 minutes. Remove from the oven, uncover, and baste with pan juices.
Increase the oven temperature to 400°C and bake for an additional 25 minutes until sweet potatoes are tender and nicely glazed.
