For a richer flavor, try adding a tablespoon of butter to the sweet potato mixture. If you don't have red hot candies, you can use cinnamon sticks and a pinch of red food coloring for a similar effect. To prevent the apples from browning too quickly, you can tent the casserole dish with foil during the first part of baking.

Apr 1, 2025My kids loved the marshmallows on top. I used golden raisins instead of pecans due to allergies, and it worked great!
