Candied Yams & Apples

Fall’s here and the apple crop just isn’t the same this year…so sad! But there are still apples and boy do they taste yummy. With Thanksgiving coming, I start to get obsessed with sweet potatoes/ yams (is there really a difference?). Another lazy Sunday, another lazy slow cooker dish but oh it taste so good and candied! Here’s what you’ll need:

3 Yams, peeled and diced

3 apples, diced. I used Gala but I don’t know much about cooking apples

2 tablespoons butter substitute such as Olivio

Maple Syrup, light or low sugar, obviously

Cinnamon & Nutmeg

 

Throw everything in the slow cooker and let it cook for 4-5 hours. When it’s done it taste like some sort of sweet candy applesauce, yum. Forget the Ice Cream, I’ve got YAMS!
