How to Make Southern Fried Apples

Step 1:

Star by peeling the apples and removing the core. Cut into even slices.

Once it’s bubbling, drizzle fresh lemon juice over the apples. Cook them on medium heat until the apples are fork-tender and soft.

Step 4:

Add brown sugar and white sugar for some sweetness. Adjust the amount based on your preference. Mix well and cook until the sugar has melted and the sauce thickens.

Turn off the heat and sprinkle some cinnamon and nutmeg. Mix until well combined.

Serve the fried apples while warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream topping. Enjoy!
