Butternut Apple Bake
"I found this recipe at my local grocery store. I made it for our Thanksgiving dinner. I used Jonathon apples, but Granny Smith or any good baking apple would work. I prepared the apple layer and butternut layer the day before and then topped it and baked it right before serving. It was easy and yummy. I will make it again for my Christmas dinner."
