SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE WITH CARAMELIZED APPLES



Sweet Potato Casserole with Caramelized Apples image

Few fruits have inspired as much lore and superstition as the apple - perhaps the most famous being the title of this book. "People think of apples as being good in desserts, but they also work well with savory," says co-author Melissa Petitto. Here, she uses them to put a grown-up twist on sweet potato casserole. "The apples...

Categories     Other Side Dishes

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 large sweet potatoes
2 Tbsp salted butter, divided
2 Tbsp olive oil, divided
2 Tbsp heavy cream
1/2 c applesauce
2 tsp grated fresh ginger
1 tsp lemon zest, grated
1 tsp sea salt
1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
2 honey crisp or fuji apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
3 Tbsp light brown sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Grease a 4-quart baking dish and set aside. Prick the potatoes with a fork and wrap each one in foil. Place them on a baking sheet and bake for 1 hour. Turn off the oven and let them sit in the oven for 30 minutes to finish cooking and cool slightly. Remove from oven and cool for 30 minutes.
  • 2. Peel the potatoes, discarding the skins, and scoop the flesh into a large bowl. Add 1 Tb. butter, 1 Tb. olive oil, and the cream. Beat with a handheld mixer on medium-high until smooth, about 1 to 2 minutes. Mix in the applesauce, ginger, lemon zest, salt, and pepper.
  • 3. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish; set aside.
  • 4. In a medium bowl, combine the apples and brown sugar; toss to combine. In a large non-stick sauté pan set over medium heat, melt 1 Tb. butter with 1 Tb. olive oil. Add the apples and sauté, stirring occasionally, until they are caramelized and golden brown, about 15 minutes. Top the sweet potato mixture with the apples. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until warmed through. Serve hot.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of sweet potatoes. Using a mix of sweet potato varieties, such as Garnet, Jewel, and Beauregard, will give your casserole a more complex flavor and texture.
  • Roast the sweet potatoes before mashing them. Roasting the sweet potatoes will caramelize the sugars and give them a slightly smoky flavor. This will also help to prevent the casserole from being too watery.
  • Use fresh apples. Fresh apples will give your casserole the best flavor. If you are using store-bought apples, make sure to peel and core them before slicing them.
  • Caramelize the apples before adding them to the casserole. Caramelizing the apples will give them a delicious nutty flavor and a slightly chewy texture. To caramelize the apples, simply cook them in a saucepan with some butter and brown sugar until they are golden brown.
  • Add some spices to the casserole. A little bit of spice can help to balance out the sweetness of the sweet potatoes and apples. Some good options include cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
  • Top the casserole with a pecan streusel topping. A pecan streusel topping will add a delicious crunchy texture to the casserole. To make the streusel topping, simply combine some flour, sugar, butter, and chopped pecans in a bowl and mix until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Conclusion:

Sweet potato casserole with caramelized apples is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy sweet potato filling, caramelized apples, and crunchy pecan streusel topping, this casserole is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
