Hot Apple Sundae Recipe
Ingredients:
- 2 apples
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Vanilla ice cream
- 1/3 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions:
-
Prep the Apples: Begin by preparing the apples. Peel, core, and slice them into thin wedges.
-
Cook the Apples: In a skillet or saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the sliced apples, light brown sugar, and lemon juice. Stir well to coat the apples evenly in the buttery, sugary mixture.
-
Simmer Until Tender: Allow the apples to cook in the butter, sugar, and lemon juice mixture until they are tender. This usually takes about 8-10 minutes, depending on the thickness of your apple slices. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
-
Prepare the Serving Dishes: While the apples are cooking, prepare your dessert dishes.
-
Assemble the Sundae: Once the apples are tender and cooked to perfection, spoon them and the syrupy sauce into individual dessert dishes.
-
Add the Ice Cream: Top the warm, caramelized apples with generous scoops of vanilla ice cream.
-
Garnish: For an extra crunch and flavor, sprinkle chopped nuts over the ice cream. This step is optional but highly recommended for added texture and deliciousness.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Serve the hot apple sundaes immediately while the apples are still warm and the ice cream is cold and creamy.
