This quick dessert is like a crustless apple tart. It's a terrific way to use the fruit of the season and a perfect finish for the pork chops Ingredients:
4 fuji or royal gala apples, peeled, cored, and each cut into 16 wedges |
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice |
4 tablespoons sugar |
2 tablespoons unsalted butter |
1/3 cup pure maple syrup |
2 tablespoons calvados |
accompaniment: premium-quality vanilla ice cream |
Directions:
1. Preheat broiler.
2. Toss apples with lemon juice and 2 tablespoons sugar. Melt butter in a shallow baking pan 6 inches from heat. Remove from oven and tilt pan back and forth to coat bottom completely with butter. Arrange apples in 1 layer in pan. Broil apples 6 inches from heat until edges are pale golden and apples are just tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Sprinkle remaining 2 tablespoons sugar over apples and broil until sugar is melted, 1 to 2 minutes.
3. While apples are broiling, boil maple syrup and Calvados 2 minutes.
4. Serve apples and ice cream topped with sauce.
