Instructions

For the apples:

  1. Melt the butter in a skillet.
  2. Add apples, cinnamon and brown sugar. Stir until well combined.
  3. Put on the lid. Let the apples cook on medium to medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until they are soft (about 7 minutes).

For the topping:

  1. Melt the butter in a small pan.
  2. Add sugar, oats, pecans and sesame seeds and brown for a few minutes until crunchy. (Do this on relatively low heat and watch closely, it will burn easily.)
  3. Serve apples in a bowl and sprinkle the topping on.
  4. Top with ice cream or whipped cream (optional).

Notes

  • *I recommend Gala apples for this recipe. A good second choice if Gala is not available is Fuji.
  • Storage instructions:
  • Store any leftover apples and topping separately in airtight containers in the fridge for up to 1 day. Reheat both components separately on the stovetop.
