Ingredients

• 4 pieces bread slices (preferably sourdough or rustic)
• 2 medium apple (crisp varieties like Honeycrisp or Granny Smith)
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons honey (optional, for drizzle)

Directions

Step 1

Core the apples and thinly slice them (about 1/8-inch thick). Toss the slices with lemon juice to prevent browning.

Step 2

Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Once melted and slightly bubbling, add the apple slices.

Step 3

Sprinkle the brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt over the apples. Stir gently to coat all the slices.

Step 4

Cook the apples for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they soften and caramelize. Stir in the vanilla extract during the last minute of cooking, then remove from heat.

Step 5

While the apples are cooking, toast the bread slices. You can use a toaster or butter both sides with the remaining butter and toast them in a skillet until golden and crisp.

Step 6

Arrange the caramelized apple slices on top of the toasted bread in an even layer.

Step 7

Drizzle with honey (optional), if desired, and serve warm.
