Ingredients
- 2 medium sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and diced into 1-in cubes
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

- While sweet potatoes are roasting, melt butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Once pan is hot, add apples, cranberries, cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar and saute several minutes, stirring occasionally until apples are tender. Add pecans and saute 1 additional minute until nuts are incorporated.
