Südstaaten-Bratäpfel mit Zimt und Pekannüssen

Zutaten

• 5 apples - cored (sliced, and peeled)
• 4 tablespoons real butter
• 2 tablespoons granulated white sugar
• 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
• 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
• salt to taste
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/4 th cup pecan pieces

Zubereitung

1. 1

   First, cut your apples (apple slicer works great for even slices) and then peel remaining skin off apple slices.

2. 2

   Melt down butter in skillet on medium heat, this should only take a few minutes.

3. 3

   Add peeled apples, sugars, lemon, salt, pecans and cinnamon on top of apples

4. 4

   Stir apples. As you stir, the sugar will start to break down and become a syrupy liquid.

5. 5

   Keep coating and stirring apples on Medium-High heat for approximately 6 minutes.

6. 6

   If the liquid is evaporating too quickly or starting to burn down, you can adjust the temperature down to medium or medium low heat.

7. 7

   After 6 minutes, add a lid and let the apples finish sauteing down on Medium-low heat for approx 6 more minutes, or until they are crisp tender. You should be able to use a fork or butter knife to cut through them, but not be mushy. They may need a few additional minutes depending on how many apples you have in your pan.

8. 8

   Serve hot for breakfast or a side dish
