Ingredients
- 4 medium Apples (such as Honeycrisp or Granny Smith)
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 teaspoons Cornstarch
- 0.25 cup Water
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Wash, core, and slice the apples into 1/4 inch thick slices. A mix of red and green apples can add a lovely flavor contrast.
Step 3
In a large bowl, toss the apple slices with lemon juice. This helps to prevent browning and adds a zesty flavor.
Step 4
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
Step 5
Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Once melted, stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 6
Toss the apple slices with the butter mixture, ensuring each piece is evenly coated.
Step 7
Add the brown sugar mixture to the apples, tossing until the slices are well coated with the mixture.
Step 8
In a separate small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in water, stirring until smooth. Pour this mixture over the apples and gently mix to incorporate.
Step 9
Spread the apple slices evenly in an 8x8-inch baking dish. Try to keep the slices in a single layer as much as possible for even baking.
Step 10
Bake the apples in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and the edges are slightly caramelized.
Step 11
Remove the baking dish from the oven and let the apples cool for a few minutes before serving.
Step 12
Serve warm, solo or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. Enjoy!
