Yam and Apple Medley image

I have made this for holidays for a couple of decades now. Goes great with ham or turkey, but don't save it just for holidays. Makes any meal a little festive. Can be made ahead and baked when dinner is almost ready.

Time 1h

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 (17 ounce) cans yams, drained and sliced
2 medium golden delicious apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
1/4 cup raisins
1 cup apple juice
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine

Steps:

  • Layer half of yams, all of apples, and remaining yams and raisins in a greased 1 1/2-quart shallow baking dish.
  • In a small saucepan stir apple juice, brown sugar, cornstarch, and spices until smooth.
  • Add butter and stir over medium heat, bring to a boil, and simmer for 2 minutes or until thickened.
  • Pour over yam mixture.
  • Lightly grease foil and loosely cover baking dish, greased side down.
  • If making ahead, refrigerate up to 5 hours.
  • Bake in preheated 400° oven for 40 to 45 minutes until apples are tender.
  • I have baked these at a lower temperature if something else is roasting in the oven. Just be sure to adjust the baking time.
