Southern Fried Apples




Ingredients :

1 pound of peeled and cored apples cut into slices.

1 tbsp of butter.

2 tbsps of granulated or light brown sugar.

½ tsp of ground cinnamon.

A squeeze of fresh lemon juice (optional).

The amount of the sugar used in this recipe depends on the type of the apples you choose.


Directions :

Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat and stir in the apple slices.

Let cook for a few minutes stirring occasionally then add the mixture of sugar and cinnamon.

Cook for 5 minutes covered. Once the apples are tender, uncover and cook to thicken the juices.

Feel free to add 1 tbsp of water if you think the juice is too little.

Once the syrup is thickened let cool a bit before serving and voila!

Easy, peasy and sweet! I don’t use a lot of sugar as I don’t like these fried apples too sweet, but feel free to add as much sugar as you like!
