How to Make Scalloped Sweet Potatoes With Ground Beef
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In an 8x8 inch baking dish, brown 1 lb ground beef over medium-high heat. Drain excess fat.
- Add 1/2 medium onion (chopped) and 1/2 green bell pepper (chopped) to the beef; cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Season with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
- Press the beef mixture into a thin, even layer in the baking dish.
- Peel and thinly slice 2 lbs sweet potatoes. Arrange them in a single layer over the meat mixture.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup packed brown sugar and 2 tbsp all-purpose flour.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup pineapple juice, 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar, and 1 tbsp soy sauce.
- Gradually whisk the juice mixture into the brown sugar and flour mixture until smooth.
- Pour the sauce evenly over the sweet potatoes and ground beef.
- Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 60 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the topping is lightly browned.
