What an absolutely wonderful surprise. I don't know that I'm going to make sweet potatoes any other way. Yum! My husband loved these as well. UPDATE- I went out of town and my husband asked me to make a huge batch so he could eat it throughout the week. And then I made it again for Christmas and it was yet another hit. This is a staple for sure!

WONDERFUL! Perfect as written, but i like to add cream instead of milk. Everyone that tried it loved it. I did have leftovers so i made a latte with about 1 cup of leftovers and 2 qt milk and a few shakes of cinnamon and some more brown sugar.. its heavenly...like liquid pumpkin pie. I also froze leftovers to make more latte later.

Well, this was interesting. It kind of tasted like mashed sweet potatoes blended with an apple pie, which basically it was. It had a nice flavor, but it also kind of reminded me of a sweet potato casserole without the marshmallows. This could actually be really healthy with a little Truvia vs. the sugar. I am just not sure what to pair it with. It really mainly seems like a Thanksgiving dinner side item.

The whole family loved. Just make sure to mash it all up and I think the butter is a real key.

Easy to make and delicious. Relatively nutritious too, if you take it easy on the butter. I pared it down to only make 3 servings, and had to use a Fiji apple and pumpkin pie spice in place of allspice, but aside from that I followed the recipe, and loved it.

This is a nice twist on sweet potatoes from the normal sweet potatoes with marshmallows. I decided to use brown sugar in place of white sugar, I prefer brown sugar's sweetness. I used one green granny smith apple. As for simmering the apple slices, it took me almost 13 minutes on simmer and when I used a fork to pierce the apples it still had a slight firmness. I used my mixer to blend majority of potatoes, adding a little milk. I went ahead and took the advice from other reviewers and placed them together in a glass 8 x8 inch glass pan and topped it with a pat of butter and sprinkled brown sugar. I heated it at 375 degrees for 15 minutes. The sweet and tart flavors complimented the grilled pork chops. This is such an easy and delicious side dish...one I will remember next time I want to make sweet potatoes.

So good! Tasted great and the apples smelled amazing. I doubled the recipe and it fit nicely into an 8x8 dish. The night before, I microwaved the sweet potatoes (8 minutes each), and the filling scooped right out. (Thanks so much for that tip; I will never boil a sweet potato again.) The next day, I prepared the apples. I didn't have allspice, so I used a little pumpkin pie spice and a little nutmeg in place of it. The apples softened right up in about 8-10 minutes. I reheated the sweet potatoes in the microwave for about 2 minutes before added the apple mixture and milk. Then I sprinkled a tiny bit of brown sugar on top. I put it in the oven for a little bit just to make sure it was heated through and to keep it warm until I was ready to serve it, but I love the fact that it can be made entirely on the stovetop. I will definitely make these again, though they may be a little too sweet for some people.
