Sautéed Apples or Fried Apples. Love on a plate.
Sautéed (or Fried) Apples. Southern comfort food.
Sautéed Apples (Also known as Southern Fried Apples)
Don here. I grew up in the South, where Sautéed Apples are a common side dish. They are considered comfort food and served for breakfast, lunch and supper. I like them best for breakfast over my Buttermilk Pancakes. You can use any kind of cooking apple, but I prefer the tart ones, like Granny Smith.
Sautéed apples—or as we refer to them here in the genteel South, Fried Apples—are a delightful addition to the breakfast plate, and they are gluten free. I have them over pancakes as pictured here. Then sometimes as a side dish alongside bacon, eggs and grits. Piled on top of freshly baked biscuits. As a topping for oatmeal. And alongside a pork chop. Be creative, they go with anything, including served warm over ice cream or on shortcake.
The quantities given are only suggestions. Adjust them to suit your taste. Maybe add a pinch of allspice or ground cloves for a different taste. Bon Appétit, y’all!
What You Need
