Apple Yam Yums

This was one of the sweet dishes prepared by one of our members for our vegan potluck on Sunday! It is traditionally called Apple Mallow Yam Yums but we could not find vegan marshmallows in time for the potluck so a homemade frosting was drizzled on top instead. Enjoy!

Ingredients
2 apples, sliced (we used honeycrisp)
1/3 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 17oz cans yams, drained
1/4 cup vegan butter
about 1 cup powdered sugar
about 3 tbs water or vegan milk

Instructions
1. Toss apples, pecan, brown sugar, and cinnamon together. In a casserole dish, alternate layers of this apple mixture and the yams. Dot with butter.
2. Cover and bake at 350F for 35-40 minutes.
3. Prepare a simple frosting by putting powdered sugar in a bowl and adding very small amounts of liquid (water or vegan milk) at a time until you reach the desired consistency. Drizzle this on top of the dish when finished baking.
