Ingredients:
4 large sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
2 Granny Smith apples, peeled and diced
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup sweetener (suggest 1/2 cup brown rice syrup and 1/2 cup maple syrup, but originally
used 1 cup brown sugar)
1/2 cup vegan margarine

1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ginger

Blanch the sweet potatoes in salted boiling water for 5 minutes or until slightly tender, but not cooked through. Rinse with cold water and drain thoroughly. Place the sweet potatoes in a large mixing bowl with the apples.
In a frying pan, combine remaining ingredients, except walnuts. Boil for at least 1 minutes, then add walnuts. Boil for at least another minute. Pour mixture over potatoes and apples and mix well.
