Serves 8
2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced or sliced
4 Granny Smith apples, peeled and diced or sliced
2 teaspoons fresh-squeezed lemon juice
½ cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch or arrowroot
1 teaspoon cardamom or nutmeg
Pinch of kosher salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 9-inch pie dough
Preheat oven to 375 F. Spray a 9-inch baking dish with cooking spray. In a large bowl, toss the apples and sweet potatoes with lemon juice. In a smaller bowl, combine sugar, cornstarch, cardamom and salt. Add to apples and sweet potatoes and toss again. Pour into prepared dish and dot with butter. Roll out dough and place over the top of the dish. Cut off excess dough; turn under and crimp. Cut three to four slits in top of dough to allow steam to escape. Bake for 45 minutes or until brown. Allow to cool before cutting and serving.
