A warm and comforting dessert featuring caramelized apples with a hint of cinnamon and nutmeg, perfect for any occasion.
Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Ensure the butter doesn't brown; keep the heat moderate.
Add the apple slices to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften.
Cut the apples evenly to ensure uniform cooking.
In a small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in the cold water until smooth.
Stir thoroughly to avoid lumps in the mixture.
Pour the cornstarch mixture into the skillet and add the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir well.
Mix quickly to ensure the cornstarch doesn't clump.
Simmer the mixture, stirring, until it thickens and coats the apples evenly.
Keep stirring to prevent sticking or burning.
Serve the caramelized apples warm in bowls, optionally topped with vanilla ice cream.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
