Equipment

  • Large skillet or cast iron pan
  • Knife and cutting board
  • Mixing bowl
  • Spoon or spatula

Ingredients

  • 4 cups chopped apples
  • 1 juice lemon to prevent browning
  • 2 tbsp salted butter
  • ½ cup packed brown sugar
  • ¼ cup white sugar
  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Peel and core the apples, then chop them into bite-sized pieces and squeeze lemon juice over them.
  • In a large skillet or cast iron pan, melt the butter over low heat.
  • Add brown sugar, white sugar, and cinnamon to the pan, cooking for about 2 minutes until melted and combined.
  • Carefully add the chopped apples to the pan, stirring gently to coat them in the mixture.
  • Continue to stir and cook for 12-14 minutes until the apples are softened and fork-tender.

Notes

For the best texture, use firm, crisp apples such as Gala or Fuji. Adjust the sugar to your taste; you can also enhance the flavor with nutmeg or vanilla extract. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Serve warm with whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, or caramel drizzle for a delightful treat.
