Midwest Scrapple
While there are other scrapple recipes on ZAAR, this one is incredibly easy and ever so good! This would be among the all time favorites of my DH....and most men would agree with him. While it is a traditional Pennyslvania Dutch breakfast, served with softly fried eggs, applesauce and biscuits, we have been known to have it for lunch, too! This recipe comes from the Midwestern Junior League Cookbook,, published in 1976 (I love those Junior League Cookbooks.) The cooking time is for chilling.
