SCALLOPED SWEET POTATOES and APPLES

I love finding new recipes for sweet potatoes.  This one is delicious any time of year and makes your kitchen smell wonderful.  You can substitute cinnamon for the nutmeg or  use a mixture of both.  Apple pie spice or Pumpkin pie spice will also work as a substitute if you have either on hand.

SCALLOPED SWEET POTATOES and APPLES

  • 6 medium-sized sweet potatoes
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 1½ cups sliced apples
  • 4 tblsp. butter
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. nutmeg
Boil sweet potatoes until tender. Slice in ¼ inch pieces. Butter baking dish and put a layer of sweet potatoes in bottom, then a layer of apples. Sprinkle with sugar, salt and nutmeg, and dot with butter. Repeat until dish is filled, having the top layer of apples. Bake in at 350 degrees for 50 minutes.
