Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 medium medium apples, peeled and sliced Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work beautifully
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar light or dark, depending on your preference
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup water

Method
 

Cooking
  1. In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter until it's nice and bubbly.
  2. Add the sliced apples to the skillet. Cook them for 2-3 minutes until they start to soften.
  3. Sprinkle the apples with brown sugar and cinnamon. Next, pour in the water to help create that lovely syrupy texture.
  4. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, for an additional 10-15 minutes. You want the apples to become tender and beautifully caramelized.
  5. Serve these scrumptious Fried Apples warm as a delightful side dish or as a cozy dessert paired with ice cream or whipped cream.
