  • Slice the apples evenly: This will help them cook evenly and look more appealing.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the apples, make sure to leave some space between them so they can brown properly.
  • Cook the apples until they are tender-crisp: You don't want them to be too soft or they will fall apart.
  • Make the glaze ahead of time: The glaze can be made up to 24 hours in advance. This will save you time when you're ready to assemble the dish.
  • Serve the apples warm: The apples are best served warm, but they can also be served at room temperature.
