Scalloped sweet potato help please

I’d like to do a scalloped sweet potato dish or similar for Christmas dinner. Looking more for a side dish than a sweeter dessert concoction. Serving it with smoked prime rib. I’d appreciate any tried and true recipe anyone would be willing to share. Never prepared this but sounds good - not happy with recipes I’ve found online. Cajun or Creole influence preferred.

We enjoy this every Christmas and Thanksgiving. It's in the F&D Board's Recipe Collection.
Scalloped Sweet Potatoes with Apples and Raisins
This is so awesome, even people who say they don't like sweet potato will love it:
1 Tbs unsalted butter
3 tart apples, cut into small pieces
2 Tbs brown sugar
2 lbs sweet potatoes, also cut into small bite size pieces
1/2 cup golden raisins
1 1/2 Tbs flour
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1 cup chicken broth, fat free
1/4 cup chopped pecans
Preheat oven to 350 and spray a 9 by 13 cooking dish with Pam (or similar).
Melt the butter in a medium nonstick skillet over med. heat. Add the apples and stir, cooking for about a minute or two until the apples start to release a bit of juice.
Add the brown sugar, then cook for two minutes until the apples start to get soft. Place the apples, sweet potatoes and raisins in the baking dish.
Now, place the flour and cinnamon in a small bowl. Whisk in 1/4 cup of the broth until it all dissolves, then add in the rest of the broth and pour the whole thing over the fruit and into the dish.
Cover loosely with foil and bake for one hour, then remove foil and sprinkle in the pecans and bake a few more minutes until the pecans are toasted.

Non sweet recipe and is quite savory if it's what you're looking for. I couldn't find the exact recipe but his is very similar.
Garlic Butter Scalloped Sweet Potatoes
ETA: Found the recipe I used on my phone:
Crispy Parmesan Thyme Sweet Potato Stacks
Ingredients
?1 stick (1/2 cup) salted butter?1-2 cloves garlic, grated?6 medium sweet potatoes, cut into 1/8 inch thick slices?2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme?2 teaspoons chopped fresh oregano?1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese?1/4 cup grated manchego cheese?kosher salt and black pepper
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven 400° F. Lightly grease a 12 cup muffin tin.??2. In a small pan, melt together the butter and garlic until fragrant, about 5 minutes. ??3. In a large bowl, combine the sweet potatoes, garlic butter, thyme, oregano, parmesan, manchego, and a large pinch each of salt and pepper. Toss well to coat. Layer the sweet potatoes evenly in the prepared muffin tin, stacking the layers all the way to the top. The sweet potatoes will shrink down as they cook.??4. Cover with foil and place on a baking sheet. Transfer to the oven and roast for 40 minutes. Remove the foil and continue cooking another 20-25 minutes or until the potatoes are tender and golden.

You can base your dish on one of the many honey glazed carrot recipes out there. I use cane syrup instead of honey plus brown sugar.

Smoked Chile Scalloped Sweet Potatoes
Ingredients:
2 cups heavy cream
1 heaping tablespoon chipotle pepper puree
3 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced 1/8-inch thick
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Whisk together cream and chipotle puree until smooth.
In a 9 by 9-inch casserole dish, arrange the potatoes in even layers. Drizzle with 3 tablespoons of the cream mixture and season with salt and pepper. Repeat with the remaining potatoes, cream, and salt and pepper to form 10 layers.
Cover and bake for 30 minutes, remove cover and continue baking for 45 minutes to 1hour, or until the cream has been absorbed and the potatoes are cooked through and the top is browned.
I have made this many times and my family loves it. I use a mandolin and add a little more chipotle because we like it a little spicy.
