Farmhouse Pork and Apple Pie
MAKE IT SHINE!
ADD YOUR PHOTO
This is a remarkably tasty dish. Love to cook it in the fall. The combination of apples and pork can't be beat. It may take a little effort, but believe me it is worth it. This is a Taste of Home Recipe. Don't let the length of ingredients fool you, it's really not that bad, just assemble everthing you need first and it will go quickly. Also don't fret if you don't have an ovenproof 12 inch skillet, that just makes it more convient, just tranfer to baking dish.

I found this to be just ok. I had hoped for a stronger apple taste, and I would in the future substitute apple cider for apple sauce. I also think that if you were serving hungry men that you would not get 10 servings. I would take it for 6-10 servings depending on what you were serving it with. It does take a long time but once you get it into the oven its pretty easy. I would plan on a good 1/2 hour of active working time.Reply
