Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 tart apples diced 1/2" pieces
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
  • pinch salt

Method
 

  1. Comine all the ingredients in a saucepan. Stir to combine and place over medium low heat. Let it simmer for 45 minutes to one hour. The apples should just start breaking down and the sugar and butter should have created a beautiful sweet glaze. Serve warm.

Notes

  • I enjoy the skin on the apples but peel them before cooking, if you prefer.
