  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Sprinkle in a pinch of sea salt. Add in the sliced apples and cook until they just begin to become tender; about 6-7 minutes.
  2. Mix the water and cornstarch together and pour over the apples. Add in the brown sugar, apple pie spice and cinnamon and mix until everything is combined. Allow the mixture to boil for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally until the perfect texture is achieved. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla.
  3. Serve warm over vanilla bean ice cream, cheesecake, waffles or pancakes.
