Tips:
- To make sure your sweet potatoes are perfectly tender, pierce them with a fork or knife before baking. This will allow steam to escape and prevent them from becoming tough.
- If you don't have a baking dish that's large enough to accommodate all of the sweet potatoes and apples, you can bake them in batches. Just be sure to adjust the cooking time accordingly.
- For a sweeter dish, add a tablespoon or two of brown sugar to the praline topping.
- If you're short on time, you can use pre-made praline sauce instead of making your own. Just be sure to choose a brand that you like the taste of.
- Serve the praline sweet potatoes and apples warm, with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

These praline sweet potatoes and apples are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that's perfect for any occasion. The sweet potatoes are tender and flavorful, the apples are tart and juicy, and the praline topping is rich and decadent. This dish is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
