Apple Yam Loaf Abm Recipes

YAM AND APPLE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Place yams in a large saucepan with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook 30 minutes, or until tender but firm. Drain, peel, and cut into 1/3 inch thick slices.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
• In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter with the cornstarch and brown sugar. Mix in the apple juice, lemon juice, cinnamon, and allspice.
• Alternate layers of yams and apples in the prepared baking dish. Pour the apple juice mixture over the layers.
• Cover, and bake 1 hour in the preheated oven. Remove cover, and continue baking 30 minutes. Baste frequently with the juices from the pan to prevent drying.

CINNAMON RAISIN AND APPLE BREAD (ABM / MACHINE)

Steps:

• Remove pan from bread machine and place on electronic scales and zero them.
• Pour in the water (240ml water weighs 240 grams) and weigh in the rest of the dough ingredients in order.
• Replace the pan in the bread machine and start machine on a raisin or equivalent 'speciality' setting. I prefer 'normal' crust for this.
• In small bowl weigh the raisins and dried mixed citrus peel. Add the spices and mix together.
• Into a second small bowl, peel about 1/3 of an average size eating apple (I usually have Braeburn apples handy but pretty much any apple is fine except the tasteless ones like Golden Delicious and Gala). Chop into small chunks somewhere between roughly 1/4 and 1/3 inch in size. Once in the bowl, sprinkle with another teaspoon of ground cinnamon and stir with spoon to cover the bits well (to take the moistness off the sides of apple bits so they mix in better).
• Add dried fruit & spice mix at 4 minutes before end of final kneading or at the beep if you trust your machine not to mash the fruit like mine always does. (My LG machine beeps nine minutes before end of final kneading which is far too soon - it can reduce dried fruit to the size of grains of sugar during that time!).
• If you trust your machine not to mash the apple then you could maybe add it a minute or so before kneading finishes. I don't trust mine in the slightest so here's what I do --
• Wash hands in very cold water and dry well just before the final kneading completes then --.
• -- when kneading has completed, quickly add the chopped apple and quickly mix it well by hand. (Shouldn't need to remove pan from bread machine to do this (unless it's in an awkward place! :).
• Slightly more stuff to do for this loaf than usual, but it's absolutely worth it!

SHORT-CUT APPLE YAM CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Cut apples in the pie filling into bite-sized pieces.
• In a medium bowl, mix the pie filling, cinnamon, and brown sugar until well blended.
• Gently stir in the cut-up yams.
• Grease a two-quart casserole dish and pour in apple-yam mixture.
• You may either microwave for approx 8-10 minutes until warmed through or you can put it into a 350F oven and bake approximately 15 minutes until warmed.
