Make some Glazed Apples and eat them with Yoghurt. And Porridge
Glazed apples are delicious. You can eat them for dessert in lots of different ways – with icecream, with grilled banana. On top of a luscious fruit salad. Any way you like. I had them in the morning, for breakfast, with porridge and thick thick yoghurt.
First, strain the yoghurt through cheesecloth, a clean tea towel, several layers of kitchen paper towel or 2 coffee filters, for 4 – 5 hours or overnight until it is thick. There are more details here about thick thick yoghurt.
Slice apples about 0.25cm thickness. A mandoline is good for this. There is no need to peel or core, although you can. The seeds are sliced so thinly that the seeds will just fall out.
Melt some butter in a frying pan. Add apple slices, sprinkle them with sugar and cook in the butter until golden. Turn them over and cook the other side.
Make porridge with bananas sliced into the porridge while it is cooking. Sweeten it with jaggery or maple syrup.
Serve your porridge in a nice bowl. Place a large dollop of thick yoghurt on top. Add apple slices and some of the caramelised sugar syrup from the bottom of the frying pan in which you cooked the apples.
Eat.
Yum.
I also added some blueberries and lavender flowers.
The inspiration for this and the glazed apples recipe came from that icon of Sydney – Bill Grainger’s book Sydney Food.

wow, the porridge looks scrumptious with those glazed apples on top. I love the beautiful glass too!
Wow, thanks Uma. I used the same glasses in my Shrikhand post. They look good, no?
beautiful glass with beautiful content!..:)..lovely to eat with yogurt and apples!
btw send this to Siri’s frozen yogurt event!
I will let you into a secret. Ssssssshhhhhhhhh! Don’t tell. The glasses with 75c ea at a local thrift shop. Very 1980′s, yet I love the form of them. Don’t they photograph well.
And I love that glass/cup as well! Beautiful snack!!
Hi Coffee. Thank you!
Spectacular breakfast. You should open a shop, I for one would be lining up for this.
It is such a simple, almost homely dish, yet with a tweak and an apple, look what it can be!
When I open my shop, I will look for you!
Amazing! Can’t wait to make this for breakfast tomorrow
I bet you had a great breakfast! Let me know how it turned out.
I love porridge and this is one beautiful version
I love how one can transport a pretty ordinary dish into the realms of heavenliness, but just a few simple additions. This is divine, I have to say.
Yum, is also the word of choice here.
Thanks, Marysol. I agree! What a great way to start the day for our family.
This looks so delicious! What a simple and so yummy breakfast!
Hello Joy. I love porridge, and this makes it a very special meal indeed. Thank you for dropping by.
This looks glorious – and ANOTHER imaginative version of porridge. Porridge tends to be my option when there’s nothing else in the house – I like it, but doesn’t quite fill me up. However, this is a lovely option.
You so have to try this. It is straight from Bill Grainger – Bills in Darlinghurst is one of my favourite places. They have whipped up dishes for me when I have had whims of food fancy, or want something different than the veggie options on the menu. They are the best. Glazed apples – SO bg.
