Apple Mashed Potatoes

          Apples and potatoes go lovely together so one day it came to me to put apples in mashed potatoes. I'm generally not a huge fan of mashed potatoes. I tend to like side dishes on the chunky side. So the apples in the mashed potatoes, here, add a great texture contrast, with the crispy raw apples accompanying the creamy potatoes. It's a wonderful fall dish and another awesome sweet/savory mash-up with, of course, heavenly apples!

Apple Mashed Potatoes

Prep+Cook Time:  30 min
6                 Potatoes (medium), peeled
2                 Onions, chopped
3 cloves   Garlic, minced
1                 Apple (large), chopped
1/4 c.        Milk (or enough for desired creamy consistency)
1 tsp          Cinnamon
1 tsp          Garlic Powder
                   salt, pepper to taste

  1. Peel potatoes and cut into 1.5 inch chunks. Put in pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and cover with lid. Check periodically to see if done. Fork should be able to pierce potato with no resistance. Should take about 15 min.
  2. Meanwhile, saute onions and garlic until onions are soft and translucent, about 10 min.
  3. Peel and chop apples and toss in 1/2 tsp cinnamon.
  4. When potatoes are done, drain water. Mash potatoes and add in milk, onion mixture, potatoes, rest of the cinnamon, and the other seasonings.
