Instructions
- Place chunked apples, brown sugar, juice or cider, cinnamon and nutmeg in a medium pot over medium-high heat and let cook 15 minutes, stirring occasionally and reducing heat to medium when mixture comes to a boil.
- Preheat nonstick griddle pan or skillet over medium to medium high heat.
- Put the potatoes and onion in a colander. Squeeze liquid out of potatoes/onion. Place potatoes/onion in a bowl and work quickly to avoid discoloring potatoes. Add egg, salt, baking soda, and nutmeg.
