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 premium ice cream or crème fraîche. I recommend Recipe #144139.
*Demerara sugar is a type of unrefined sugar with a large grain and a pale to golden yellow color.

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 stick unsalted butter
Splash vanilla extract
Cinnamon stick
Pinch kosher salt
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
3 or 4 firm apples, such as Gala, or Fuji, peeled, cored, and cut into eights
Splash dark rum
Vanilla, Chocolate, Cinnamon, or Chocolate Chip ice cream, for serving

Steps:

Melt butter in a large nonstick frying pan over medium heat. When the foaming subsides, add the vanilla, cinnamon, and salt. Sprinkle sugar evenly into pan and cook until bubbly.
Remove the pan from the heat and arrange the apples on top in a single layer. Return the pan to stove and cook over medium heat until the apples are glossy and knife tender, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and add the rum. Carefully light the rum, with a long kitchen match. Return the pan to the heat and cook, shaking gently, until the flames subside. Transfer the apple mixture to serving dishes and serve immediately over ice cream.
