What's Cooking?
Sauteed apples are one of those dishes that get overlooked. They are so easy and tasty and kids love them. The other night I decided to try something a little different with them and we liked the results. They go great with ham or bacon sandwiches or even in a grilled cheese sandwich.
Apples, sliced
Bacon Grease
Demerara Sugar (or brown sugar)
After you have cooked some bacon in your cast iron skillet, leave some of the grease in the skillet. Throw in the apple slices and toss them around a bit to coat them with the grease. Then, sprinkle a little sugar over the top of them and cook the apples through. Serve immediately.
I said these were tasty I didn't say they were healthy. ;)

They do look tasty! I had sauteed apples at a restaurant a few years ago, and they were so good! I'll have to try this next time I get apples.
ReplyDeleteHowdy Ms. Elise! I hope you try them; I think they will be a smash!
DeleteThis is why I *need* one of those peeler, slicer, corer gadgets!
ReplyDeleteI don't have one of those either - just a plain old knife and a pair of hands. :)
DeleteHi there! I have never tried this with bacon grease.. but I use a little pad of butter, brown sugar, vanilla extract and ground cinnamon. They are delicious! I'll have to try yours with the bacon grease though. YUMMO!
ReplyDeleteI served a slightly different version of "stewed apples" to our youth group a couple of months back. They went ga-ga over them. They sound very much like your version. The bacon grease just makes them slightly savory. Thanks for dropping by Ms. Carly!
DeleteHi Pary,
ReplyDeleteI just love Apples make like your recipe. My Grandmother made them that way and they are so good. Hope you have a fabulous week end and thank you so much for sharing with Full Plate Thursday.
Come Back Soon!

Howdy Miz Helen! I figured that apples cooked in bacon fat wasn't a new idea, but it was new to us. :)
