1 Grany Smoth apple, thinly sliced
brown sugar and more cinnamon for dusting

    masher or fork.
  2. Break the egg into the yams.
  3. Pour in 1/4 C of the melted butter.
  4. Sprinkle in the sugar and cinnamon.
  5. Mix well with a wooden spoon until all the ingredients are
    incorporated together well.
  6. Bring the oven temperature up to 350 degrees.
  7. Spray a square baking pan generously with a non stick cooking
    spray.
  8. Spread the yam mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
  9. Top with the apple slices.
  10. Sprinkle with the brown sugar and cinnamon.
  11. Bake in the oven until set and the apple slices are your
