Ingredients

• 4 medium-sized Apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 3 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 pinch Salt

Directions

Step 1

Wash, peel, and core the apples. Slice them into 1/4-inch thick wedges.

Step 2

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat until it begins to foam.

Step 3

Add the apple slices to the skillet in an even layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes without stirring, allowing the apples to begin softening and slightly browning.

Step 4

Sprinkle the brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt over the apples. Stir gently to coat the apples evenly in the sugar mixture.

Step 5

Continue to cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender and caramelized.

Step 6

Stir in the vanilla extract during the last minute of cooking and mix well.

Step 7

Remove the skillet from the heat and let the apples cool slightly before serving.

Step 8

Serve warm as a side dish, dessert, or spooned over pancakes, waffles, or ice cream.
