Description

An incredible fall breakfast or dessert, these roasted apples are covered in browned butter and honey then tossed in sesame seeds. The crisp apples soak up the syrupy goodness to create the perfect warm and mouth-watering bite. Best served with thick greek yogurt or whipped cream. Add granola or nuts for some crunch. You can also turn this into an apple pie filling for a little twist on the classic.

Ingredients

  • 2 whole Red Apples, Preferably Gala Or Honeycrisp
  • 2 Tablespoons Melted Unsalted Butter
  • 2 Tablespoons Honey
  • ½ teaspoons Cinnamon
  • 1 pinch Sea Salt
  • 1 Tablespoon Sesame Seeds

Preparation

Preheat oven to 425°F.

Start by coring your apples. Cut each apple in quarters then cut each quarter on the diagonal to create triangular shaped slices.

Melt the butter and honey in a small saucepan over low heat. Make sure not to brown the butter because that will happen later during the roasting process.

Add cinnamon and salt to the saucepan. Remove saucepan from heat and toss apples in melted butter mixture. Make sure they are all nicely coated.

Spread apples onto a baking tray and pour remaining liquid over apples. Roast for 15 minutes, then toss apples to ensure an even cook and re-coat the apples with the liquid pooling on the pan.

Cook the apples for 10 more minutes or you can easily pierce apples with a fork.

Remove apples from the pan excluding liquid that might have burnt around the edges of the pan. Serve with greek yogurt and walnuts or granola. You can also serve with crème fraiche or cheese for a more savory rendition.
