Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 slices bacon
1 small onion, chopped
2 medium apples, peeled and chopped
1 medium potato, peeled and chopped
3 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 1/2 cups unsweetened apple juice
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 cups shredded extra-sharp cheddar cheese (about 8 ounces)
2 slices rye bread, toasted
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
Chopped fresh chives, for topping

Steps:

  • Cook the bacon in a large pot over medium heat until crisp, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to paper towels to drain; let cool slightly, then roughly chop. Pour out all but 2 tablespoons of the drippings from the pot.
  • Increase the heat under the pot to medium high. Add the onion, apples and potato and cook, stirring frequently, until the apples are soft, about 8 minutes. Add the chicken broth, apple juice, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Bring to a simmer and cook until the potato is soft, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in all but 2 tablespoons of the cheddar until melted. Working in batches, transfer the soup to a blender and puree. Return to the pot and season with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the broiler. Spread the bread with the mustard and sprinkle with the reserved 2 tablespoons cheese. Broil until the cheese melts, about 30 seconds, then cut into 1-inch squares. Ladle the soup into bowls and top with the bacon, chives, cheese croutons and more pepper.

APPLE-CHEDDAR WAFFLES



Apple-Cheddar Waffles image

We used self raising flour, which has both leavening and salt in it, as a shortcut ingredient to make these savory and fluffy waffles. A small bit of sugar in the batter doesn't add detectable sweetness, but keeps the waffles moist and helps the exterior crisp up when cooking.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 stick unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly, plus more for the waffle iron
1 1/2 cups milk
2 large eggs
2 cups self-rising flour
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1 Gala apple, finely chopped
1 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese
1/3 cup pure maple syrup
2 teaspoons grainy mustard
1 5-ounce package mixed baby greens
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 225˚ F or 250˚ F (as low as your oven will go). Combine the melted butter, milk and eggs in a large bowl; whisk to combine. Add the flour and confectioners' sugar and stir to moisten, then add the apple and cheese and stir until well blended. Set aside.
  • Heat a waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Working in batches, lightly butter the waffle iron, then ladle in some of the batter. Close the iron and cook until the waffles are browned and crisp, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven while you cook the remaining waffles.
  • Meanwhile, mix the maple syrup and mustard together in a small bowl. Toss the greens with the vinegar, olive oil and a pinch each of salt and pepper in a large bowl. Divide the waffles among plates, along with the salad. Drizzle the maple mixture over the waffles or serve on the side for dipping.

Categories     Desserts     Fruit Dessert Recipes     Apple Dessert Recipes

Time 50m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup butter
1 ½ cups white sugar, divided
6 each Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored, and diced
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons ground nutmeg
2 cups baking mix (such as Jiffy®)
1 cup milk
6 ounces shredded sharp white Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Combine butter and 1 1/4 cups sugar in a 9-inch oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir until sugar dissolves and mixture begins to caramelize, 5 to 10 minutes. When mixture starts to simmer, add diced apples and sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg. Gently press on the apples with a spatula until coated with sugar mixture and simmer, without stirring, until they begin to soften, about 5 minutes.
  • Combine baking mix, milk, shredded Cheddar cheese, and remaining 1/4 cup sugar in a bowl and stir until consistency is similar to a waffle batter. Spoon mixture evenly over the apples in the skillet; no need to be too precise as it will spread out while baking.
  • Bake skillet in preheated oven until batter reaches a firm consistency and is golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the stovetop until the caramelized sugar thickens a bit, about 5 minutes. Spoon servings onto individual plates, drizzle with caramel liquid, and serve while warm.
