Vegan Baked Sweet Potatoes and Apples

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Vegan Baked Sweet Potatoes and Apples.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C).

2. Step 2

   While the oven warms up, take your sweet potatoes and arrange them neatly on a baking sheet.

3. Step 3

   Pop them into the oven and let them bake for about 20 minutes, just until they’re tender but still have a bit of firmness.

4. Step 4

   Once they’re done, carefully remove the sweet potatoes from the oven and allow them to cool until they’re safe to handle.

5. Step 5

   When they’re cool enough, peel off the skin and slice them into delightful 1/2-inch thick rounds.

6. Step 6

   Next, grab a deep 1 1/2-quart baking casserole and give it a light coat of vegetable oil to prevent sticking.

7. Step 7

   Begin layering half of your sweet potato slices at the bottom of the dish, creating a beautiful base.

8. Step 8

   Drizzle half of the melted vegan margarine over the sweet potatoes, followed by a generous splash of maple syrup to add that sweet touch.

9. Step 9

   Now, it’s time to add a layer of sliced apples on top.

10. Step 10

    Sprinkle a hint of cinnamon and ground cloves to elevate the flavors.

11. Step 11

    Repeat this layering process with the remaining sweet potato slices, margarine, maple syrup, and apple slices, creating a deliciously colorful dish.

12. Step 12

    To finish it off, pour apple juice evenly over the top of your casserole, ensuring every bite will be bursting with flavor.

13. Step 13

    Cover the dish with a lid or some aluminum foil to keep all that goodness in.

14. Step 14

    Bake your casserole in the oven for 30 minutes, then remove the cover and let it bake for an additional 10 minutes.

15. Step 15

    This will give the top a lovely golden-brown finish that’s simply irresistible.

16. Step 16

    When it’s ready, serve your warm casserole straight from the oven, or cover it to keep it warm until you’re ready to enjoy.

17. Step 17
