Baked Apples

One of my favorite things to see cooking when I was growing up were baked apples.  Contrary to their name, they're not actually baked - they're cooked in a frying pan!  When I was little I would sneak into the kitchen while these were cooking and steal the apples with the most brown sugar on them.  In all honestly, that's half the fun of making these - the snacking.


Ingredients
5 large apples (I used gala)
3 Tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Directions
Peel, core, and slice apples.  Add apples, brown sugar, and cinnamon to a large pan and stir until apples are coated.

Cook on medium for 15 or so minutes, stirring every few minutes, until apples are cooked through.



They're seriously good.  I especially like them served with pork.  Mmmmm...

    Oh yum! Those look so good. I always used to want them from Cracker Barrel and you just made me crave them again!

      Oh my gosh...I'd forgotten about them at Cracker Barrel. That's one of the things I miss the most up here in Boston. The closest one is 40 minutes away. These taste just like them, but are probably 10 times better for you. No butter needed. :)

    WOW Lauren. You make food look soooo good. I can't wait to try this. Bill really likes baked apples and pork. I never have made apple to go with pork. Sounds so very good. Thanks for sharing.

      Thanks Faye! They're sooooo good! I have an Honey Mustard/Apple marinade for a pork tenderloin that I bet Bill would LOVE then!
