Mrs. Wilson’s Fried Apples
This fried apples recipe sounds so easy to make. And why not fry up a side of apples to compliment your pork dish? Pork and apples belong together! This recipe is a first prize winner. It also sounds like this could be a great topping for a waffle or pancakes as well.
Fried Apples Recipe
Three tart apples, one tablespoon butter and one tablespoon shortening, one tablespoon peanut butter, one teaspoon sugar and a pinch of salt. Core apples, leave the peel on, cut round in quarter inch slices. Melt other ingredients in frying pan, turn in apples season with cinnamon or nutmeg; cover and fry slowly until tender-about twenty minutes. Serve with roast pork. A little grated cheese added gives it a nice flavor.
