Fall Comfort Food: Sweet Potato Apple Casserole

Today, I’m excited to share this delicious Sweet Potato Apple Casserole recipe with you. With the crisp fall air settling in, there’s nothing like a warm and comforting dish to enjoy with loved ones. This dish combines the earthy sweetness of sweet potatoes with the tartness of apples for a unique and flavorful twist on a classic casserole.

Ingredients:

• 3 large sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
• 2 apples, cored and sliced
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp nutmeg
• 4 tbsp butter, melted
• 1/2 cup chopped pecans

Kitchen Tools:

• baking dish
• mixing bowl
• knife
• spoon

To start, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the diced sweet potatoes, sliced apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and melted butter. Mix everything until the sweet potatoes and apples are coated evenly with the sugar and spices. Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish, spreading it out into an even layer.

Sprinkle the chopped pecans over the top of the sweet potato and apple mixture, adding a crunchy texture to the dish. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, allowing the top to become golden brown and crispy.

Once the casserole is done baking, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. The sweet potatoes will be tender, the apples will be soft, and the flavors will have melded together beautifully.

This Sweet Potato Apple Casserole weighs approximately 1300 grams, making around 6 servings. Each serving is about 217 grams, with an estimated calorie count of 250 per serving.

One unique tip for this recipe is to add a splash of maple syrup before serving for an extra layer of sweetness and complexity. The maple syrup enhances the flavors of the sweet potatoes and apples, taking this comforting dish to the next level.

I hope you enjoy making this Sweet Potato Apple Casserole for your loved ones this fall. Feel free to customize it with your favorite ingredients and make it your own. Happy cooking!
