4 tbsp unsalted butter |
1 cup sugar |
1 large egg |
1 large or 2 medium apples |
1/2 pound sweet potato |
1 tsp vanilla extract |
1/2 cup chopped nuts (i use walnuts or pecans) |
Directions:
1. Grease and flour an 8 square pan.
2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
3. Sift together the flour, baking soda, salt, and spices and set this aside.
4. Cream the butter and sugar until light.
5. Beat in the egg.
6. Peel and grate the sweet potatoes and apples and then stir them into the creamed butter mix and also add the vanilla extract with them.
