Jen of CincyShopper calls her Cracker Barrel Fried Apple copycat recipe a terrific addition to breakfast, lunch or dinner, and it’s hard to argue with that take on this dish. Jen recommends using golden delicious apples, saying they have the best taste and texture for this recipe, and uses a blend of cinnamon, nutmeg and allspice, so you know it smells amazing as you’re cooking. She also adds an extra touch of tang by including apple cider in the mixture.
