Smashed Sweet Potatoes and Apples image

Looking for ways to cut down on the number of dishes that require oven time on Thanksgiving, I devised a sweet potato dish that can be made ahead in a slow cooker. It's not too sweet, and it makes a perfect side for turkey or ham. -Judy Batson, Tampa, FL

Categories     side-dish

Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 1/2 pounds baby Yukon gold potatoes, halved
Kosher salt
8 to 10 garlic cloves
Freshly cracked black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/2 cups half-and-half
3 tablespoons butter
2 Granny Smith apples, cored and diced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Put the potatoes in a large pot and cover by 1-inch with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over high heat, add salt, to taste, and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, create a boat shape out of aluminum foil and add the garlic cloves. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and drizzle with oil. Seal the foil and roast until the garlic is nicely caramelized, about 30 minutes. Heat the half-and-half in a small saucepan over low heat until hot.
  • Drain the potatoes and put them back into the pot. The heat from the pot will continue to dry out the potatoes. Add the half-and-half, butter and roasted garlic and mash. Fold in the apples and season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve.
