For a richer flavor, use brown butter in the topping. Simply melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, swirling occasionally, until it turns a nutty brown color. Let it cool slightly before adding to the other topping ingredients. Feel free to experiment with different types of apples. A mix of tart and sweet varieties, such as Granny Smith and Honeycrisp, works well. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for the ultimate indulgence.
