Ingredients

  • 2 Autumn Glory® apples, peeled, cored, and cut into sixteen wedges each

  • ½ teaspoon cardamom
  • 1½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • fresh ground pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400F.
  2. Toss all the ingredients in a large bowl, then spread them evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  3. Roast in the oven for one hour, until the sweet potatoes are very tender and the apples are cooked but still slightly firm.
  4. Serve warm.
