Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups cored then sliced apples*
- 4 cups thinly sliced rutabaga** ( approx. 1 med. or 1/2 large)
- 1 medium onion
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375.
- Put large oven safe frying pan in oven with 1 tablespoon oil for 2 minutes. I like to use a 12 inch cast iron pan.
- Thinly slice the onion during the 2 minutes then put in pan and back in the oven so the onions can soften while the oven preheats.
- While the onions cook, thinly slice the apples and rutabaga.*
- Once the oven is preheated, pull the pan from the oven and remove onions.
- Layer rutabaga in bottom of pan.
- Sprinkle 1/2 the salt and pepper over top.
- Put apples on top of rutabaga.
- Spread cooked onions across top.
- Add remainder of salt and pepper.
- Cover pan with oven safe lid or foil.
- Bake 45 minutes.
Notes
- *I use gala or empire apples
- **I use a mandoline slicer with setting 2 but you can also slice by hand.
