Sauteed Apples is a Perfect Side

By Lorraine

 
Easy recipe for sautéed apples made on the stovetop, is the perfect side dish for many entrees. Sweet and tender apples with cinnamon cook quickly on the stovetop.
If there is one side dish that is perfect with so many meals, it would have to be Sauteed Apples. I learned of this recipe from a longtime friend and I have lost count of how many times I have made it since.

A perfect side dish to round out the menu

Often when I am looking for something to round out a meal, I turn to this recipe. The sweet and tender apples work well with many different entrees including, pork tenderloin, chicken, meats, pasta and casseroles.  You know, when you want just something else and you already have a meat, vegetable and  starch on the menu. These sauteed apples are a great addition.

Easy and delicious

Made on the stove top, you can have sauteed apples ready in about ten minutes. And, they are delicious! Almost like having dessert for dinner.

I used Macintosh in the photos shown in this post. They will be softer than if you use something like a Granny Smith. I like using both varieties but you might have a different variety that your prefer.

 

Other ways to sauteed apples serve

 They are great on top of pancakes, in crepes or over ice cream too. You can even eat them just as they are. They are that good!

Sauteed Apples Recipe

PRINT RECIPE

INGREDIENTS:
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 4 large tart apples – peeled, cored and sliced 1/4 inch thick
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup cold water
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Salt (optional) I like to sprinkle a pinch of salt on the apples. It really makes a difference in bringing out flavor!
  • 1/4 cup raisins (optional)
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
 
DIRECTIONS:
In a skillet or saucepan, melt butter over medium heat; add apples. Cook, stirring constantly, until apples are almost tender, about 6 to 7 minutes.

Dissolve cornstarch in water; add the mixture to the skillet. Stir in brown sugar, cinnamon and raisins, if using. Simmer for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat, stir in lemon juice and serve warm.

    I love this. I think it would be great with pork and red cabbage, but then I sounds good as is, or with ice cream. Well, this just sounds good.

    I love sautéed apples! Funny, but it's been so warm here (as usual) that it's really hard to even think that it's autumn. I just keep filling the bird feeders and cutting flowers as if it were July. Thanks for the reminder that it is apple season.

    With cold, leftover pork roast or poured over vanilla ice cream, or in a puddle of warm vanilla custard – looks delicious!

    We love apples and yours would be great to have right about now :o)

    One of my favorite kitchen gadgets is my "apple peeler/corer/slicer" :o) When our three were growing up, they would love to help use this to make for apple treats.

    Blessings & Aloha!

    Yes, its apple season and this recipe will come in handy. Beautiful capture as always. What kind of apple did you use that has the red specs in the flesh?
