We get a lot of apples here in the fall and I am always looking for new apple recipes. This one actually looks really good. I love mixing apples with savory things like sharp cheddar, onion, and bacon grilled cheese. I am going to keep this one for the fall. Let me know if you make it and how you and the fam like it!
ReplyDeleteOh I will, planning on making it tonight! :)))
ReplyDeleteI am even thinking of drizzling balsalmic vinegar over the top. Maybe even some pecans... I love experimenting
