Here is a simple, quick and delicious way to serve apples. It will take less than 15 minutes to prepare. These can be served alone or as a topping for vanilla ice cream or yogurt, or even in a bowl with a little heavy cream poured over them. If you've never had fried apples, you are in for a treat!
Sweetened Fried Apples
2 apples
3 Tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 Tablespoons Sucanat or Rapadura
In a cast iron skillet, melt 3 Tablespoons butter on medium/low heat.
While it is melting, core and slice the apples without peeling them. You can make them as thin or thick as you like, but of course, the thicker pieces will take longer to cook.
Saute the sliced apples in the melted butter until they begin to soften. Stir frequently as they cook.
Sprinkle on 2 Tablespoons of Sucanat, the cinnamon, and continue to cook and stir until they are becoming a little caramelized.
You may increase or decrease the amount of Sucanat and cinnamon to suite your taste. You can also add more butter if you wish.
Those look and sound really yummy! I have a ton of apples so I'll have to try that soon. It reminds me somewhat of the fried apples at Cracker Barrel.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds yummy! I have some apples that won't be good to just eat maybe they will work for this.
ReplyDeleteIt's a good way to use up apples that might be a little less than... perfect? :)
DeleteI came looking for your mashed potatoes from Real Food Wednesday. I can't find them, although these look great though too!
