Number of Servings:
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cups - butter
- 1/2 cups - Demerara sugar plus more to taste (depending on tartness of apples)
- 1 - star anise or 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 4 - crisp apples peeled & sliced
- 1/4 cups - Calvados or Apple Jack
- - Vanilla ice cream or crème fraîche for serving
Directions:
1. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt butter and cook until it foams. Once foaming subsides, stir in sugar and spice and cook 1 minute to allow flavors to meld.
2. Lay apples into pan in a single layer and cook until fruit begins to caramelize, about 5 minutes.
3. Pour Calvados into pan. Use a long match or candle lighter to ignite alcohol. Boil until flames subside, 1 minute. Remove from heat and serve with ice cream or crème fraîche.
