Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large sweet potatoes
- 3 medium apples
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 0.25 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 cup water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Peel the sweet potatoes and slice them into 1/2-inch thick rounds.
Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges.
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with a small amount of butter or cooking spray.
Layer half of the sweet potato slices in the bottom of the baking dish, followed by half of the apple slices.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter.
Stir in the brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt, and mix until well combined.
Drizzle half of the butter mixture over the sweet potato and apple layer.
Repeat the layers with the remaining sweet potato slices and apple slices.
Drizzle the remaining butter mixture over the top layer.
Pour 1/4 cup of water evenly over the casserole to help it steam while baking.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender and the top is slightly caramelized.
Let the casserole cool slightly before serving.
For OAMC (Once-a-Month Cooking): Allow the baked dish to cool completely, then cover tightly with foil or plastic wrap and freeze. To reheat, thaw in the refrigerator overnight and warm in a 375°F oven until heated through, about 20-25 minutes.
