Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 375F.
- Add a 480g large peeled sweet potato, cut into 3 pieces, to a saucepan covered with water.
- Cover the pot and bring the water to a boil.
- Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for approximately 5 minutes, until the potatoes are just tender, but not fully cooked, since they will be baking in the oven.
- While the potatoes are boiling, blend 1/2 apple with 1/2 cup of water, then add it to a saucepan along with 1 tsp nutmeg, 1 tsp cinnamon, 1 tsp lemon zest, and 1/2 tsp sea salt.
- Simmer over low heat for 3 minutes.
- Stir in the juice from 1/2 lemon and 3 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil to the saucepan.
- Once sweet potatoes are tender, drain off the water, and let them cool down, then cut them into bite size cubes.
- Spray a large baking sheet with avocado oil cooking spray, then place the sweet potato cubes on the baking sheet, in a single layer, without piling them on top of each other.
- Pour the liquid over the sweet potatoes, then place the baking sheet in the oven.
- Bake for 30 minutes, then remove and enjoy.
