Here is how you make Sweet Potato and Apple Stuffing:

Cover sweet potatoes in water, bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer till tender (20 mins). Drain. Peel and discard skin, and mash potatoes in a large bown. Heat 2 tbsp 'I can't believe it's not butter' in a large pan on medium high heat. Add onions, celery, salt and pepper. Cook stirring often for about 5 mins. Add apples, water and spices, continue cooking and stirring for 3-4 mins. Stir mixture and bread crumbs into sweet potatoes. Adjust seasonings and moisture as needed with broth. Use as is as a stuffing, or place in sprayed 9X9 baking dish and dot with remaining 0.25 cup ICBINB (use less as desired). Bake at 350F for 20 mins until golden brown. Makes about 8-1 cup servings or 16-half cup servings. (nutritional info is shown for 8-1 cup servings) (I found this in a newspaper last year and made it slightly modified which turned out great. I think the original recipe came from the Joy of cooking or some other cookbook I can't remember right now)Number of Servings: 8Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user RIOKITTY.
