Ingredients
1 pound bulk sausage
6 large tart baking apples
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon grated lemon rind
1/4 cup chopped figs
brown sugar, ground cinnamon, grated lemon rind, or chopped figs
Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Brown the sausage in a large skillet. Wash the apples and cut a slice from the tops. Scoop out the flesh, leaving shells 1/2 inch thick. Cut the flesh from the cores and chop it. Add the chopped apple, brown sugar, cinnamon, lemon rind, and figs to the sausage and mix well. Fill the apple shells with the mixture. Sprinkle the tops with brown sugar, cinnamon, grated lemon rind, or chopped figs. Place in a baking dish, cover, and bake until tender, about 40 minutes. Serve with hot biscuits and a green salad.

I rated this recipe with a single star without even reading the whole recipe for this reason; Would it be too much to ask WHAT KIND OF SAUSAGE? Italian, breakfast, something else? Just a tiny, little detail after all. Sheesh.

Hello, Delta. Thanks for commenting. We prefer to leave the sausage up to the chef, as everyone has different taste. If we were to state “Italian sausage,” those who do not like Italian sausage would turn away and so on and so forth for the other types of sausage. We hope you will try it with your favorite kind of sausage and decide to change your 1-star rating. Enjoy!

Are the figs fresh or dried?
