- 2. Top with nutmeg and walnuts. Bake 30 to 40 minutes or until heated through. Serve warm.
Tips:
- To save time, use a food processor to grate the apples and yams. Make sure to use a coarse grating disk so that the apples and yams retain some of their texture.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can grate the apples and yams by hand. Just be sure to grate them finely so that they cook evenly.
- Be sure to use fresh apples and yams for the best flavor. Avoid using apples that are too soft or bruised, as they will not hold their shape when cooked.
- You can add a variety of spices to the casserole to taste, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. You can also add a bit of lemon zest for a brighter flavor.
- If you want a sweeter casserole, you can add more brown sugar or maple syrup. You can also add a layer of streusel topping before baking.
- Be sure to cover the casserole with foil when baking. This will help to prevent the top from browning too quickly.
- Serve the casserole warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
