Amazing! When I read the recipe I was afraid it would be like eating candied pork, but it was nothing like that. The carrots, apples, and maple all blended together beautifully and wasn't too sweet at all. The only thing I will do different is next time I will bake it instead of doing it in a skillet and I might add some raisins into it. I will definitely make this recipe again.
