Ingredients
- 8 cups apple slices About 5 apples peeled and cored
- 1/4 cup salted butter
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Add the butter and brown sugar to a skillet.
- Set it over medium-high heat and cook until the butter has melted and the sugar has mostly dissolved, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add the sliced apples to the pan.
- Sprinkle the cinnamon over the apples and stir into the butter and sugar.
- Continue heating over medium high heat until the apples reach your preferred texture. The thickness of the apple slices will determine how long it takes to cook and could take up to 15 minutes.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
- If the liquid in the pan gets too thick before the apples are done, add 1/4 cup of water and reduce the heat. Continue cooking until the apples are done.
- Whether you choose thick or thin slices, try to keep the apple slices the same thickness. This will avoid having some that are too done and some that are too crunchy.
