Larras Baked Spiced Apples and Oranges

I had oranges and apples in the house and couldn’t find a recipe that used them both so I created this one. This is a great side-dish for a holiday gathering or would even be good as a dessert over French vanilla ice cream – or even better if you cook this the night before and heat it up before serving. Enjoy!

Step: 1

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

Step: 2

In a large bowl, toss together the apples, oranges, brown sugar, Cheddar cheese, and walnuts. Spread evenly in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Sprinkle crushed crackers evenly over the fruit.

Step: 3

Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat and whisk in flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and baking powder. Drizzle over the crackers, then drizzle the creamer over the casserole. Cover with a lid or aluminum foil.

Step: 4

Bake for 1 hour in the preheated oven. Remove from the oven and uncover. Stir gently to fold in the crust.

One of most obvious way to choose a side dish is to look at your main dish (pasta, chicken, seared tofu) and pick something different. If you’re making pasta, go for a simple vegetable . Making steak? Go for more light. If you’re making stir-fry with rice, it must not a best idea to also make a rice salad.

This also can apply to cooking process . You don’t want to push more often your oven by scheduling three dishes at once in there, or be juggling four pans on the cooking items . But sometimes you can made a dish do more often .
