Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchini
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons sugar-free honey substitute
- 0.5 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon kosher salt
Directions
Step 1
Begin by carefully slicing the zucchinis into thin, apple-like slices. This step is crucial as the shape helps to mimic the texture of apples.
Step 2
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the sliced zucchini with lemon juice and ground cinnamon. Toss well to ensure the slices are evenly coated.
Step 3
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Once the butter is melted and begins to foam, add the seasoned zucchini slices.
Step 4
Cook the zucchini for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. You want them to be tender but not overly soft, to maintain a slight crunch reminiscent of fresh apples.
Step 5
Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the zucchini slices onto a serving platter.
Step 6
In a small saucepan, gently heat the sugar-free honey substitute over low heat. Stir in the pure vanilla extract and kosher salt until well combined and warmed through.
Step 7
Drizzle the warm honey mixture over the cooked zucchini slices. Serve immediately to enjoy a warm, sweet, keto-friendly treat.
