A quick dessert to serve for family and company that is a healthy alternative to a baked pie or crisp. If you want to make it a bit "less healthy" serve topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped topping. :-)

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Firm, tart apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp hold their shape well and provide a nice contrast to the sweet filling.
  • Slice the apples evenly: This will help them cook evenly and prevent some pieces from becoming mushy while others remain hard.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: If you add too many apples, they will not cook evenly and will release too much moisture, making the filling soupy.
  • Cook the apples over medium heat: This will allow them to caramelize and develop a rich flavor without burning.
  • Stir the apples frequently: This will prevent them from sticking to the pan and ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Add the cinnamon and sugar mixture gradually: This will help to prevent the apples from becoming too sweet or overpowering the other flavors.
  • Serve the apples warm: This is when they are at their best, with a tender texture and a slightly crispy exterior.

Conclusion:

Warm skillet cinnamon apples are a delicious and versatile dessert that can be enjoyed on their own, served over ice cream or yogurt, or used as a filling for pies, tarts, and other baked goods. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a sweet and comforting dish that will satisfy your cravings and impress your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dessert that's sure to please everyone, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
