A cinnamon-y fruit topping that tastes great over pancakes, waffles, oatmeal, etc. From the Black Dog Inn B&B in Estes Park, Colorado. Mix and match different kinds of apples for a more robust flavor. Also good with a few raisins or dried cranberries thrown in; just make sure to add a little more water or juice to allow them to plump up enough. Ingredients:
2 large apples, peeled, cored, and sliced |
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/2 cup sugar |
1 cup orange juice |
1/4 teaspoon orange zest |
brandy (optional) |
Directions:
1. Place all ingredients in saucepan.
2. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until apples are tender, approx 15-20 minutes. Add more water as needed while simmering.
3. Softened apples can be left chunky or processed in a blender for a smoother sauce.
4. Return to pan and add brandy as desired.
5. When ready to serve on pancakes, re-heat and top with applesauce and whipped cream.
