Sauteed Apples
Report
Cinnamon-spiced Sautéed Apples are tender, warm, and totally irresistible. Best of all, they're ready to eat in less than 30 minutes!

Ingredients
- 8 cups peeled, cored, and sliced apples (see Notes below about apple varieties and slicing)
- ¾ cup firmly packed light brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon nutmeg
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- ½ cup fresh-pressed apple cider (in the refrigerated section at the grocery store)
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
Instructions
- In a large bowl, fold together the apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
- In a large saute pan over medium to medium-low heat, melt the butter. Stir in the apples and cook for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cook time will depend on apple variety, size of slices, and desired tenderness. Juices will accumulate; they should be bubbling.
- In a small bowl, whisk apple cider and cornstarch to combine. Drizzle over the apples and stir to combine. Turn up the heat to medium to medium-high and continue to cook until liquid is bubbly, thickened, and beautifully glossy - another minute or two is all it takes. Remove pan from heat. Serve warm or cold.
Notes
- Apple varieties: I recommend a variety that holds up well to cooking/baking and has a bold sweet-tart flavor. My absolute favorite variety for this recipe is Haralson, a local Minnesota variety. Otherwise I use Honeycrisp. Granny Smith can also be good. Do not use a bland apple or one that breaks down quickly when cooked/baked, or you'll end up with something more like a soft applesauce. To add a little more flavor and texture interest, use more than one apple variety when making this recipe.
- How to slice: For more toothsome bites, slice the apples thicker.
- This freezes well. Just store the cooled sauteed apples in a freezer-safe container. Let thaw before enjoying. To enjoy warm, gently heat in a pan on the stovetop over medium-low heat, or gently microwave.
