My mother made fried apples for us kids. I thought everyone knew how to cook them up, apparently not. Have run across a few who have never heard of fried apples!!! Who would have thought! Use whatever apples you have on hand, I do.

    Stir the apples as they cook and when they start to become soft, sprinkle the brown sugar, cinnamon, cloves and the raisins.
