This should be a dessert. It is so good! The crunchiness of walnuts and the fruity taste of raisins complement this traditional holiday dish. We use Venezuelan rum.

2 tablespoons butter, cut into small cubes
½ cup rum
½ cup chopped pecans
¼ cup maple syrup
¼ cup raisins
¼ cup cranberries
1 tablespoon stevia
1 ½ teaspoons coconut oil

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Mix rum, pecans, maple syrup, raisins, cranberries, stevia, and coconut oil together in a bowl. Stuff sweet potatoes with rum mixture and apples.
