- For this dessert, choose firm apples that hold their shape and won't fall apart in the pan — otherwise the dessert won't look its best. Wash the apples well under running water and pat them dry with paper towels. Peel off the tough skin so it doesn't detract from the finished dish, core the apples, and cut them into slices. In a separate bowl, stir the sugar together with the ground cinnamon, which gives the apples a lovely flavor and aroma. Spread the cinnamon sugar evenly over a large flat plate and roll the apple slices in it, turning to coat all sides. Melt the butter in a nonstick skillet over low heat. Once melted, add the sugared apple slices. Cook on one side, then flip and cook the other until nicely golden. The apples will soften and take on a thin caramel crust. Transfer them to a clean plate and let them cool slightly. You can serve the caramelized apple slices on their own as a simple dessert, or use them to decorate a homemade cake or fruit pie. For a prettier plated dessert, arrange the slices on a flat plate alongside whipped cream (or a couple of scoops of ice cream), dust with ground cinnamon, and drizzle with honey or a topping of your choice (caramel or whatever you like). Incredibly delicious — and elegant enough for any celebration. Enjoy!
