Serves: 8

• 1/2 cup margarine, melted
• 1 cup sweet potato (yams), peeled and grated
• 1 cup carrot, peeled and grated
• 1 cup apple, peeled and grated
• 1/2 cup matzo meal
• 2 tablespoons sweet Passover wine
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 cup white sugar, can be cut a little
• 1/2 cup brown sugar, can be cut a little

Use some of the melted margarine to lightly grease a 7"x11" baking pan.

Combine the remainder of the margarine with the other ingredients. Mix well. Pour into pan. Bake at 375°F for 45 minutes or until brown.

Variations: Add 1/2 cup chopped pitted prunes and 1/2 cup raisins to the ingredients. Can be used as a dessert or side dish.

Note: I have successfully replaced 1/2 the margarine with unsweetened applesauce and used Sweet n' low brown sugar substitute for the brown sugar. I also cut back on the white sugar as well.

Poster's Notes: This is a recipe from Francis AvRutick's "Complete Passover Cookbook" which my family loves. I make it for Rosh Hoshanah and Pesach, and I am thinking of including it in my Thanksgiving menu.
