Tonight it is fried apples. With butter. And rasins. And cinnamon. These are fantastic. I can't stress the awesomeness of this.
I imagine them piled over a warm sugar cookie and topped with ice cream or whipped cream. Dear God, that would be a tiny bit of heaven on Earth. Well... unless you don't like apples. Then I'm going to have to break the news to you that you are an odd duck. But that's ok because odd ducks make the world interesting!
Or you could top plain jane pancakes with them. That would be amazing too.
OR you could use this as a filling for crepes! OMG! That would good too!
Anyway... now that my moment of zen thinking about these stuffed into crepes is momentarily over, here's the recipe and some pics for you to drool over...
Ingredients

3 medium Granny Smith Apples, cored, de-seeded and sliced
1/2 stick unsalted REAL butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup raisins (optional)
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
a TINY dash of nutmeg (too much is too much and more than a tiny dash is too much!)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
How You Put it Together
Core and de-seed the apples but do not peel them. You want the peel left on. The peel will soften up as the apple cooks so there aren't any chewing issues with leaving it on the apples. If you peel the apples, they will fall apart. Slice them into slices that are about 1/4" thick.

Melt the butter in the pan and add the apples. Stir them around a bit to coat them.

Finally, try and wait until it cools off enough that it doesn't scald the skin off your tongue. If you have a sugar cookie that you could zap in the microwave for 10 seconds and some vanilla ice cream to go with this, you are now my freakin' hero and I'm insanely jealous. I'm eating mine straight out of the bowl off of a sterling silver serving spoon. :)
