Servings: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1 ½ tablespoons butter or coconut oil
- 1 large apple peeled, cored and either sliced thinly or chopped into bite sized pieces
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- Pinch nutmeg
- ½ teaspoon cornstarch + 2 tablespoons of water
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once it's completely melted, add in the apples and stir until they are fully coated in the butter. Sauté for 7-10 minutes until nice and tender to your liking. The cook time depends on the thickness of your apples.
- While the apples cook, stir together the cornstarch and water in a small bowl and set aside.
- Once the apples are tender, take the pan off of the heat and immediately stir in the cornstarch slurry. Once combined, stir in the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- Serve and ENJOY!
Notes
Place cooled leftovers in an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to 3 days. When you are ready to eat them, you can enjoy them cold (straight out of the refrigerator) or warm them up in the microwave or on the stove.
I don't recommend freezing the apples, as they may become a little mushy when thawing.
