Sweet Potato Apple Napoleon

Sorry I didn't get around to posting Thanksgiving recipes earlier, but I actually work for a living - and "occasionally" it gets in the way...

I do have a nice dish to contribute though to replace that awful marshmallow crusted sweet potato casserole  that haunts holiday meals.

Sweet Potato Apple Napoleon

2 sweet potatoes 

2 cored apples

1/8 cup lemon juice

1 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp nutmeg

1/3 cup Splenda (or equivalent sweetener of choice)

1 tsp molasses (for the brown sugar taste)

2 Tbls butter

Heat oven to 350 F

Slice sweet potatoes and apples "potato chip thin"

Arrange a layer of potatoes, then apples in an 8X8 casserole 

Heat/microwave remaining ingredients to melt butter - stir well

Drizzle over layer

Repeat, finishing with sweet potatoes

Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 2 hours

Allow to cool and "set" for at least 15 minutes

Slice into portions

Excellent served warm or at room temperature
