- Stir in the remaining ingredients. Cook for about 5 - 10 minutes longer. Store in a covered glass jar or airtight container in the fridge. Serve warm over French toast, pancakes, cake, ice cream ... anything that goes well with apples ... or just eat them with a spoon.

Flambe! It's always fun to set food on fire intentionally (setting food on fire accidentally is entirely another matter, as I know first-hand). I like these over ice cream.

BOURBON FRIED APPLES
This is a slightly healthier spin on traditional fried apples. The skin is left on, and the reduced butter and sugar are offset with flavor-boosting bourbon, raisins, cinnamon, and lemon juice. I use Cameos for this recipe, as they are naturally sweet and hold their shape well, but if you're using a tarter variety, you may wish to increase the brown sugar and omit the lemon juice. Golden rum can substitute for the bourbon.

Steps:
- heat 1/4 c butter in a skillet.
- add shallots, cook 5 minutes to soften.
- add apples, bourbon and maple syrup, cook for 3 minutes.
- add cider and boil for 5 minutes until most of the liquid evaporates.
- reduce heat and stir in remaining butter 1 tbsp at a time.
- add nutmeg, cloves and sage, stirring.

Tips:
- Choose the right apples. Firm, tart apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp hold their shape well and can withstand the heat of the flame.
- Use a good quality bourbon. The better the bourbon, the better the apples will taste. Look for a bourbon that is at least 80 proof.
- Be careful not to overcook the apples. They should be tender but still have a little bit of crunch.
- Serve the apples immediately. They are best enjoyed warm and fresh out of the pan.

Bourbon flamed apples are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They are a great way to use up leftover apples, and they are also a fun and festive way to impress your guests.
