Happy Sunday Everyone!! I read a great article via Facebook and thought I would link to it and create a my own photo saying of it. Maybe most moms need to hang it up in their kitchens? 🙂 Maybe I’ll make a canvas… 🙂
Recipe: This is one of my FAVORITE breakfasts ever!! I had a similar meal at Mimi’s Cafe. They have such delicious food. If you haven’t been there, I love their roasted turkey dinner. A very simple preparation and easy to do, this recipe is a great lazy day winter breakfast or dinner.
I love fried apples on my waffles and pancakes. With the bacon, the sweet and salty mixture is outstanding. I used a hickory smoked bacon here, but any favorite – even applewood bacon – would be great. Add some sweet maple syrup and you get a very special meal with very simple ingredients.
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon butter
- 1 apple (Gala or Fuji), sliced
- ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar
- 4 slices of bacon
- 4 frozen waffles (store bought or homemade)
- toppings: maple syrup
Instructions
- For the apple: Heat a skillet over medium heat - add butter for a regular skillet or not necessary for a nonstick skillet. Once the butter melts, add sliced apple, a couple shakes of cinnamon and brown sugar. Cook for about 10 minutes or until soft.
- For the bacon: Heat a cast iron skillet over medium heat with bacon. Cook on both sides until crispy - about 10 minutes. Or, bake in the oven at 400 degrees on a broiler sheet or wire rack for about 15-20 minutes.
- For the waffles: toast in the toaster per the directions on the box or on medium to medium high. Place toasted waffles on plate, top with cooked apples, bacon and maple syrup.
