This very simple recipe is sweetened with honey. Serve with a crunchy

green vegetable, carrot and cabbage slaw and a lemon dessert.

 

Peel sweet potatoes and cut into 1/4 inch slices. Core and cut apples into

1/4 inch slices. Toss apples in a bowl with lemon juice to prevent

discoloring. Place sweet potatoes and apples in the slow cooker.

 

In a bowl, combine butter, honey, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and

cloves. Pour butter mixture into slow cooker and stir to coat potatoes and

apples. Cover and cook on low heat for 8 to 10 hours, or on high heat for

4 hours, until potatoes are tender.
