Instructions
  1. Place potatoes in a large pot of salted water & bring to a boil. Cook for 20 minutes until tender. Drain & mash with milk, 2 Tbsp butter & mustard.
  2. Peel 4 apples, remove cores & cut into large cubes. Place in a saucepan with 1/4 cup water. Bring to a boil then lower heat & simmer for 10 minutes or until tender. When soft add 2 Tbsp sugar & combine to make an applesauce consistency.
  3. In a saucepan, heat 1 Tbsp butter & sauté onion with a pinch of salt. Add ground pork & scramble fry until browned. (Drain any excess liquid so the casserole doesn’t become too soggy). Season with salt & pepper to taste.
  4. Preheat oven to 375 F. Butter a 13 x 9-inch baking dish.
  5. Combine potatoes & ‘applesauce’ with onion/meat combo. Add additional seasoning if necessary. Spoon mixture into prepared baking dish.
  6. Remove the core from the remaining apple & cut into thin slices. Arrange slices over casserole mixture & sprinkle with grated cheese.
  7. Bake for about 30 -35 minutes until top is slightly browning.
