Ingredients:

  • 3 lbs yams, about 4 medium size with red flesh
  • 2 lbs tart apples , about 5
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 lemons , juice and zest of
  • 1 tbsp nutmeg , fresh grated if possible
  • 1/3 cup butter or 1/3 cup margarine

Directions:

  1. Cook yams with skin on, in boiling salted water till tender.
  2. When cool peel and slice crosswise a little bit thicker than 1/4 inch.
  3. Zest the lemons and then juice them reserving zest and juice.
  4. Peel, core and slice apples.
  5. Layer yams and apples starting with yams.
  6. Top this layer with a sprinkling of sugar, some dots of butter, some nutmeg and a sprinkling of lemon juice with zest.
  7. Add another layer of yams and apples and top this layer the same way. Continue layering and top each layer till all is gone.
  8. Cover with a lid or foil and bake 45 minutes at 325 degrees.
  9. Remove cover and put temperature up to 400 degrees and cook for 15 minutes more.
  10. This recipe will fill a large size 5 quart Corning casserole dish to the top.
  11. When I have to microwave this dish I cover and cook it on high and just check for tender apples by inserting a knife in it. I think it is approximately 20 minutes give or take, There will be lots of juice in the bottom so I serve this with a slotted spoon. Enjoy!
