Leftover ham anyone??
Here is the perfect recipe to use. It almost seemed like dessert. I was sweet and full of fantastic flavors.
There isn't too much sugar in it but it was super sweet. Super sweet in a good way though. We all loved it and I can't wait to make it again. I love having ham leftovers!
Ham, Sweet Potato and Apple Casserole Recipe
Adapted from Easy to be Gluten Free
3 large sweet potatoes (she used less, I love sweet potatoes though)
2 medium apples, cored and sliced, unpeeled
1 lb. cooked ham, cut into bite sized cubes
1 medium onion, rough chopped
1/2 cup dried cranberries (I used craisins and went heavy on them)
3/4 cup apple cider or juice
2 1/2 tbsp. cornstarch
2 tbsp. brown sugar
2 tbsp. maple syrup
1 tbsp. lemon juice
1/2 tsp. cinnamon (slightly heaping)
1/2 tsp. allspice (silghtly heaping)
Peel and chop sweet potatoes into bite size chunks. Cook in water until just tender, not mushy. Drain well and transfer to a big bowl. Add apples, ham, onion and cranberries to the sweet potatoes; gently stir to combine.
Pour into a large baking dish. I used a 12 x 15 but a 9 x 13 would work, it would just be very full. (I did use a LOT of potatoes).
In a small bowl, combine apple cider and cornstarch and stir until combined. Add the brown sugar, maple syrup, lemon juice, cinnamon and allspice. Stir. Pour mixture over the casserole.
Cover and bake for about an hour at 375.
