How To Make mama's fried apples

  • Step 1
    Place the butter in skillet on medium high and let it melt. While it does that , get your apples washed, cored and sliced. Place in skillet and let it cook.
  • Step 2
    Stir the apples as they cook and when they start to become soft, sprinkle the brown sugar, cinnamon, cloves and the raisins.
  • Step 3
    Continue cooking the apples until soft, about 5 minutes more. Add the walnuts and stir everything together. It's ready to serve!
  • Step 4
    Sometimes we will add a dollop of whipped cream, or scoop of vanilla ice cream. Most of the time we just serve it as a side to supper.
