Fried Apples

This is an old favorite of mine. Every time we went to visit my Grandma, we would wake up the next morning to the smell of these apples cooking in the kitchen for breakfast. They are great to eat by themselves or better yet - on a nice flaky biscuit, but they also make a great topping for pancakes, waffles or ice cream. The great thing about this recipe is, if you like them a little softer, just cook them a little longer, and vice versa. Enjoy!

Fried Apples - yield 3-4 servings

6 medium apples
3 T. brown sugar
4 T. butter/margarine

Peel and slice the apples. Melt the butter in a large skillet, add the apples and mix to combine with the butter. Cover and cook apples, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle the brown sugar in and mix together. Cover again and cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are golden brown and soft (about 20 minutes). Serve while still warm.
