Maple Sweet Potato And Apple Gratin Recipe 475

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400˚F. Butter a gratin or baking dish. Decoratively arrange potatoes and apples in gratin or baking dish. Combine maple syrup, butter, cinnamon and salt to taste in saucepan. Bring to a simmer, stirring. Pour over potatoes and apples. Bake 25 minutes. After baking, put under broiler about 4 inches from heat for 1-2 minutes, or until lightly browned.

• Heat oven to 350. Let the kids coat a 9x13-inch baking pan with 1 tablespoon of the butter; set aside.
