Equipment

  • cast iron skillet

Ingredients
  

  • 3 slightly tart or mixed-used apples. try using a mix - Cameo, Winesap, and Jonathan, for example. Note: Red Delicious will get mushy.
  • 2 tbsp vegan butter Regular butter works well too!
  • .3 cup local honey
  • 2 tbsp toasted almond slices hazelnuts or pecans would do nicely as well

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees
  • While the oven is preheating, peel, core and dice apples into 1/2 pieces.
  • Heat the butter in the cast-iron skillet over medium heat until bubbly. If you are using real butter, a nice touch is to let it heat until browned.
  • Add the apple pieces, stirring occasionally until nice and golden, with slightly caramelized edges. The pieces should still be firm.

  • Once the apples are golden, add the honey. Stir and cook for 5 minutes or until sticky and more golden. They should still be firm.
  • Place the skillet in the oven and bake for another 15-20 minutes until the apples are done to your preference. I prefer a bit firmer apple but you may prefer a softer result.
  • Serve in a bowl or pudding cup. Top with toasted almonds or your topping of choice.
