Fried Apples

This is a classic family breakfast from when we were growing up.  Dad created the recipe and I remember loving it.  It looked like it got typed up to go in a cookbook somewhere and then thrown in the cupboard.  I knew my family would love it, too, so I whipped it up for breakfast this morning.

Fried Apples
Recipe from Dad

5 apples, peeled and sliced
1/3 stick butter, or enough to fry the apples
1/3 c sugar
1/4 c flour

Fry apples in butter.  Add sugar and flour and mix until thick and bubbly.  Serve warm.

I accidentally dumped a bunch of flour in the pan and in trying to rectify my mistake made it worse.  So it ended up being a gloppy mess.  No one seemed to mind, however, because it got eaten up right away and the bottomless pit that is my child cried when it was all gone.  She ate more than me. I was just sad it got eaten before I remembered to take a picture of the gloppy mess.
