The sweet potato filling was a bit too dry. I think I'll add some more butter or milk next time.

The apples were a bit too tart for my taste. I think I'll try using a sweeter variety next time.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I think it would have been better with some added spices or herbs.

These stuffed apples were a hit! The sweet potato filling was perfectly complemented by the tart Granny Smith apples. And the added spices gave the dish a warm and inviting flavor.
