Soused Apples Recipes

SAUTEED APPLES

Steps:

• Divide ingredients in half, and work in two batches. Melt butter in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add apples and cinnamon. Sprinkle with sugar; toss to coat. Saute until apples are browned, about 5 minutes, tossing often. Transfer to a gratin dish. Serve warm.

SAUTEED APPLES

Steps:

• In a large skillet or saucepan, melt butter over medium heat; add apples. Cook, stirring constantly, until apples are almost tender, about 6 to 7 minutes.
• Dissolve cornstarch in water; add to skillet. Stir in brown sugar and cinnamon. Boil for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and serve warm.

SAUTEED APPLES

Steps:

• In a large cast-iron or other heavy skillet, heat butter over medium-high heat; saute apples 1 minute. Add water; bring to a boil. Stir in sugar and cinnamon. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, until apples are tender, 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally.

SAUTEED APPLES

Steps:

• In a large skillet on medium-high heat, melt butter (If your butter browns a bit, don't get excited! This gives an even better flavor.
• Add sliced, unpeeled apples, cover, and saute, stirring frequently.
• In a bowl, mix brown sugar and cinnamon. (Sometimes, for a taste difference, I also throw in 1/2 cup chopped pecans, at this point).
• When apples are just barely starting to get tender, stir in sugar-cinnamon mixture.
• Continue cooking until sugar has dissolved into syrup.
• Serve with hot buttered biscuits and sausage on the side; or alongside ham or pork.

SOUSED APPLES

• Rose hip tea is pleasurable with this meal.

HOMEMADE APPLESAUCE

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a large pot and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 25 minutes.
• Carefully puree in a food processor or blender (don't fill too full; split into two portions if needed) until smooth. Store in the fridge and serve by itself, over pork chops, over ice cream, over pancakes...or any place where applesauce is needed!

THE BEST HOMEMADE APPLESAUCE

Steps:

• Combine the apples, sugar, 1 cup water and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large pot. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook until the apples are very soft, 18 to 20 minutes.
• Stir in the lemon juice and cinnamon. Let cool for 5 minutes or so, then transfer the apple mixture to a blender, filling no more than halfway. Remove the center cap from the lid and place it on the blender. Cover the lid with a folded kitchen towel to catch splatters and pulse until smooth. Alternatively, puree in the pan with an immersion blender.
• Transfer the applesauce to a bowl and refrigerate until cool, about 1 hour. Store leftover applesauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

BOURBON FRIED APPLES

Steps:

• Combine water, butter, and Bourbon in a large skillet over medium heat; stir until butter melts. Add apples, raisins, brown sugar, and cinnamon; stir to coat. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer, stirring frequently, until apples have softened and liquid has reduced to a syrup, about 10 minutes. Stir lemon juice into apples and serve warm.
