Method
- 1
Peel, core, and slice the apples into even ¼-inch wedges so they cook at the same rate.
- 2
In a wide sauté pan or skillet, combine the brown sugar, butter, cinnamon, and a splash of apple cider over medium heat.
- 3
Stir periodically as the butter melts and the sugar dissolves, letting the mixture bubble gently for 2-3 minutes until it thickens into a smooth glaze.
- 4
Add the sliced apples to the pan, tossing to coat them evenly in the glaze.
- 5
Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, for 12-15 minutes until the apples are fork-tender and glossy.
- 6
Watch closely toward the end and do not overcook. Once the apples begin to turn translucent at the edges they are close to falling apart, so pull them from the heat as soon as they are tender.
- 7
Serve warm as a topping for biscuits, pancakes, or French toast, spooning extra glaze from the pan over the top.
