Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 5 medium carrots
- 2 large sweet potatoes
- 1 cup prunes
- 1 cup dried apricots
- 2 cups ginger ale
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground ginger
- 2 tablespoons butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Peel and slice the carrots into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into bite-sized chunks, about 1-inch in size.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced carrots, sweet potatoes, prunes, and dried apricots.
In a small saucepan, heat the ginger ale, honey, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, and ground ginger over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Stir occasionally.
Grease a large casserole dish with the butter to prevent sticking.
Transfer the vegetable and dried fruit mixture to the casserole dish and spread it out evenly.
Pour the ginger ale mixture evenly over the contents of the casserole dish.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes.
After 60 minutes, remove the foil, gently stir the mixture, and bake uncovered for an additional 30 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes and carrots are tender and the sauce has thickened.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm as a side dish and enjoy!
