Sweet Potato Apple Casserole

"This Sweet Potato Apple Casserole is a nostalgic nod to autumn gatherings. It is simple enough for a weeknight, yet special enough for your holiday table. It will become your new Thanksgiving tradition. If you are looking for new and delicious sweet potato recipes, then try my Sweet Potatoes with Maple Syrup and my Gnocchi made with Sweet Potatoes. They will become family favorites. My side dish balances tender sweet potatoes with tart apples, all wrapped in a buttery brown sugar glaze and finished with a crunchy pecan topping. Think of it as part side dish, part dessert, and entirely irresistible. It perfectly balances the creamy texture and earthiness of sweet potatoes with the tartness and firmness of cooking apples. Unlike some sweet potato casseroles, this recipe avoids a heavy, gooey marshmallow or condensed milk topping, letting the natural sweetness of the potatoes and apples shine through, enhanced by the brown sugar and spices. It requires minimal mashing or complex layering, making it a relatively quick and straightforward side dish for holidays or weeknights. It’s a comforting, aromatic dish that appeals to both adults and children, often serving as a dual side dish and dessert."
