Sweet Potato & Apple Casserole

For the most part, the Baron and I have very similar tastes. I especially like how he’s open to trying anything and willing to venture into more exotic foods. But one common ingredient we don’t share a love with are sweet potatoes. Joel and I can eat our weight in sweet potatoes! But the Baron? Oh no… he’ll politely decline any offering of such dish. Well, if you’re like me, you can appreciate Sweet Potato & Apple Casserole. Part dessert and part side dish, this cinnamon and nutmeg kissed Sweet Potato & Apple Casserole with a pecan and marshmallow topping is a great accompaniment to an Easter ham, turkey or pork roast…

This recipe was introduced to me by the Baron’s Aunt Judy. I loved the combination of sweet potatoes and apples all baked together with cinnamon and nutmeg, which ties both together so well. The topping of brown sugar, PLUGRA butter, pecans and marshmallows made it more like a dessert, which is never a bad thing! I typically make half the recipe for Joel and me to enjoy but you can easily double the recipe too for other sweet potato fans!

    Dudette isn't a fan of sweet potatoes either, unfortunately, but Hubby and I love them, especially when not overly sweet. I think your casserole sounds perfect, with the hint of tartness from the apples.
