Ingredients
- •- 6 large Granny Smith apples, peeled and sliced 1/4-inch thick
- •- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- •- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- •- 1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
- •- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- •- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- •- Pinch of kosher salt
- •- 2 tbsp apple cider
- •- 1 tbsp pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- 11. Melt butter in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat until slightly foaming, about 2-3 minutes.
- 22. Add sliced apples to the skillet, spreading them in an even layer. Allow apples to start caramelizing without stirring, about 4 minutes.
- 33. Sprinkle granulated and brown sugars evenly over the apples. Gently toss to coat, ensuring each slice gets caramelized edges.
- 44. Dust cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt across the apples. Continue cooking, occasionally turning apples gently with a wooden spoon.
- 55. Pour apple cider and vanilla extract over the apples. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook until apples are tender but not mushy, about 10-12 minutes.
- 66. Remove from heat when apples are golden brown and have a glossy, caramelized appearance.
