Familiar autumn flavors like fresh apples and smooth bourbon combine to make a comforting meal that hits the spot on a cool evening. The recipe is simple enough to add to your weeknight menu, while also tasting undeniably impressive. You can use whichever apples you have leftover from the apple orchard, but Honeycrisp varieties tend to hold up best as they cook. We like to pair this hearty dish with a simple spinach salad or scalloped potatoes.
