Apple Maple Syrup Sauce

Ingredients

Instructions

1. 1

   Peel and cut the apples in half; stem to end. Using a melon baller, scoop out the core. Cut each quarter lengthwise into 1/4 inch slices.

2. 2

   Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. When the foam subsides, add the apples and cook slowly until softened and browned, about 5 minutes.

3. 3

   Add the maple syrup and cook until the combination begins to bubble and is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.

4. 4

   Add the brandy, carefully, and cook for another minute to cook off the alcohol. Serve warm with pancakes, pork, or your favorite ice cream. Store the leftover sauce in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to a week.
