Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Pierce 4 large sweet potatoes several times with a fork and place on a baking sheet. Bake for 50-60 minutes until tender when pierced with a knife.
- Step 2: While the sweet potatoes bake, combine 2 medium peeled and diced granny smith apples, 1 cup chopped walnuts, 1/4 cup red wine, 1 tsp ground cinnamon, 1/4 tsp ground cloves, 2 tbsp honey, 1 tbsp lemon juice, and 1 tsp orange zest in a bowl. Stir well to blend flavors and set aside.
- Step 3: When sweet potatoes are cool enough to handle, slice each lengthwise and gently scoop out some flesh to create a cavity, reserving the scooped flesh.
- Step 4: Mix the reserved sweet potato flesh into the haroset mixture to bind it slightly. Spoon the haroset filling generously back into each sweet potato cavity.
- Step 5: Return stuffed sweet potatoes to the oven and bake uncovered for an additional 10 minutes until heated through and the filling is aromatic.
