Tips:
- Use fresh, crisp apples for the best flavor. Granny Smith or Honeycrisp apples are good choices.
- Soak the beans overnight before cooking to reduce the cooking time. If you don't have time to soak the beans, you can cook them in a slow cooker on low for 8-10 hours.
- Use a good quality ham. A smoked ham will add more flavor to the casserole.
- Don't overcook the casserole. The apples should still be slightly crisp and the beans should be tender but not mushy.
- Serve the casserole hot with a side of mashed potatoes or rice.
