Granny’s Apple Scalloped Potatoes
“This scalloped potatoes with apples dish is delicious with breaded baked pork chops, which you could cook at the same time in another cast-iron pan. We are retired and it’s just the two of us, but you could easily double the recipe.” —Shirley Rickis, The Villages, Florida
