Directions
1.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. In a large bowl, combine apples, potatoes, onion, oil, and the 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon white pepper; toss gently. Arrange in a single layer in a 15x10x1-inch baking pan. Bake, uncovered, about 30 minutes or until beginning to brown, stirring once.
2.
Transfer apple mixture to a large saucepan. Stir in broth and the water. Bring just to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer about 20 minutes or until potatoes are very tender. Stir in milk. Cool slightly.
3.
Transfer one-fourth of the apple mixture to a blender. Cover and blend until smooth.* Pour blended mixture into a large bowl. Repeat with remaining mixture, one-fourth at a time. Return to saucepan. Heat through. Season to taste with salt and additional white pepper. If desired, swirl a little half-and-half into individual servings. Makes 8 side-dish servings.

Test Kitchen Tip
When blending hot liquids, fill the blender no more than half full. Cover tightly with the lid, leaving center slightly open to vent hot air. Cover entire blender with a clean towel while operating.
