Fried Apples

6 apples, peeled and sliced

2 Tbl. butter

4 Tbl. brown sugar

Cinnamon to taste

In a heavy skillet melt butter. Place apple halves evenly in the skillet. Sprinkle with brown sugar. Simmer on low heat until well cooked. Sprinkle with cinnamon and serve hot.

A cast iron skillet is best for this but if you're like me, I have a glass top stove and can't use cast iron so I use a heavy skillet and place a lid over my apples until they are almost done. I then remove the lid to finish cooking and let some of the moisture cook out.

Changes - use peaches or pears. Change the spice to allspice, nutmeg, etc. You can also add a few nuts if you want.
