This bake was okay, but not as good as I was hoping. The sweet potatoes were a bit bland and the applesauce was too runny.

I was disappointed with this recipe. The sweet potatoes were dry and the applesauce was too tart. I won't be making this again.

I followed the recipe exactly and the bake turned out great. The only thing I would change is to use a little less sugar in the applesauce. It was a bit too sweet for my taste.
