What each ingredient does
- Sweet potatoes
- Form the bulk of the dish and soften into tender, starchy slices as they bake.
- Granny smith apples
- Add tartness that balances sweetness and release moisture as they soften.
- Raisins
- Add concentrated sweetness and chewy texture throughout the dish.
- Honey
- Adds sweetness and helps form a glossy glaze on the potatoes and apples.
- Melted butter
- Adds fat and richness, carrying flavour and helping the glaze coat the fruit.
The step that matters
Cover with foil and bake until tender. Covering traps steam so the sweet potatoes cook through evenly while the honey and butter glaze the dish. Check tenderness with a knife, since slice thickness changes how quickly the potatoes cook.
