here is a recipe we've made down through the years from Cooking Light magazine. It makes great scalloped potatoes. I wonder if it would work with all sweet potatoes or half sweet/half white potatoes.
Cider Scalloped Potatoes
Published: Cooking Light- 10/01/98
INGREDIENTS
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup 1% low-fat milk
1 cup apple cider
1/2 cup fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded smoked Gouda cheese
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded reduced-fat Jarlsberg cheese
2 pounds Yukon gold or yellow Finnish potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Place the flour in a medium saucepan. Gradually add the milk, stirring with a whisk until blended. Stir in cider, broth, salt, pepper, and nutmeg; bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Combine cheeses in a small bowl. Arrange half of the potato slices in a shallow 3-quart casserole, and sprinkle with 1/2 cup cheese mixture. Arrange the remaining potato slices on top. Pour the cider mixture over the potatoes, and bake at 425 degrees for 25 minutes. Remove from oven; press potatoes with a spatula. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup cheese mixture, and bake an additional 20 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Let stand 10 minutes.
