Whipped Sweet Potatoes with Ginger and Caramelized Apples image

Silky pureed sweet potatoes get fruity notes from applesauce and hints of heat from freshly grated ginger. A topping of caramelized diced apples makes a beautiful presentation, but also works wonderfully with the flavor of the sweet mash -- so well that nobody will miss the standard mini marshmallows.

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 large sweet potatoes, pierced with the tines of a fork
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1/2 cup applesauce, preferably homemade
2 teaspoons grated fresh peeled ginger
1 teaspoon coarse salt
Freshly ground pepper
2 apples (1 pound), peeled, cored, and cut into 1-inch pieces
3 tablespoons sugar
