A vibrant celebration of autumn flavors, this casserole layers the sweetness of sweet potatoes (often misidentified as yams!) with the tartness of Granny Smith apples. Crowned with a luscious brown sugar and raisin topping, it's a comforting and elegant addition to any holiday table, especially Thanksgiving and Christmas.

For a richer flavor, use dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar.
Add a pinch of nutmeg to the brown sugar mixture for extra warmth.
If you don't have raisins, chopped pecans or walnuts make a delicious substitute.
To prevent the top from browning too much, cover the casserole with foil for the last 10 minutes of baking.
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
