Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Prepare the Apples (5 minutes): Peel, core, and slice the apples into 1/4-inch thick pieces. Uniform slices ensure even cooking.

02

Step
3 mins

Create the Caramelized Base (3 minutes): Melt the butter in a sauté pan over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined and a smooth paste forms.

03

Step
10 mins

Cook the Apples (10 minutes): Add the apple slices to the pan, ensuring they are evenly coated with the sugar mixture. Cover the pan to create steam, which will help soften the apples. Stir frequently to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.

04

Step
10 mins

Steam Until Tender: Continue steaming, stirring occasionally, until the apples are soft and slightly translucent, about 10 minutes. Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning.

05

Step
0 mins

Serve Warm: Spoon the warm apple pie topping over your favorite ice cream. Enjoy immediately!

For a richer flavor, use brown butter instead of regular butter.
A splash of apple cider vinegar or lemon juice can add a bright tang to balance the sweetness.
Try adding a pinch of ground cloves or ginger for a more complex spice profile.
This topping is also delicious over pancakes, waffles, or even baked brie.
