Fried Apples

I'm always thinking about
what to make for supper on 
the way home from work!
Can you tell - I don't plan ahead too much?

When nothing comes to mind,
I like to stop in Wellesley at the little
grocery Pym's and pick up
something quick like schnitzel or sausage.

Nothing tastes better with schnitzel
than some warmed apple sauce
or
best of all ....
Mom's Fried Apples - so easy and delicious
and no recipe required!!

Here's how you make them:
Just halve, peel and core some apples,
wet them with some water,
toss them in some flour,
melt a pad of butter in a saucepan/frypan,
place those "dusted" apples onto the melted butter,
fill each core hole with a touch of brown sugar,
and a sprinkle of cinnamon


Cover and fry gently till tender,
adding a splash of water if needed
and voila ... you have a great side dish to schnitzel.
Easy Peasy!


Did your mom ever make
fried apples?



Till next time ...... just a few more sleeps!!

  2. Yes, minus the sugars and flour. She served them with pork chops. Yours sound very, very good.

  3. I have never had fried apples, but any apple cooked with butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon must be delicious!

  5. Hi, new follower here. I had to look up 'schnitzel. I never had that in Texas or in the Midwest where I live now. We have a pork tenderloin that sounds awfully close though. I love fried apples. Sounds like delicious comfort food. :D

  6. I've never heard of fried apples, but I know I would like them. Anything apple goes so well with pork.

  7. I've never heard of fried apples.. at least dusted with flour. I imagine it gives the apples a bit of a sauce right aways and it sounds tasty!
