Ingredients
- 4 apples*
- ¼ Cup salted butter
- ¼ Cup brown sugar
- ¼ Cup granulated sugar
- 1 Tablespoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Peel, core, and slice or dice the apples into bite size pieces. Set aside.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter.
- When the butter is melted, stir in both sugars and stir continuously until the sugars begin to dissolve (they will begin to clump and then to liquify and bubble).
- Stir in the ground cinnamon.
- Add the apples and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender (the amount of time required can vary depending on how thickly sliced the apples are. But start checking around the 8-minute mark for doneness).
- Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
*See the 'What are the Best Apples for Cinnamon Fried Apples' section above in the blog post for an extensive list of apple varieties that work well in this recipe.
You can either slice or chop your apples into bite sized pieces. It's really a personal preference! We like slices as a side-dish and chopped when using as a topping!
Store fried apples in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Enjoy them cold, or warm them up on the stove over medium heat when ready to enjoy.
