APPLES FOSTER AKA APPLE PIE MINUS THE CRUST



Apples Foster Aka Apple Pie Minus the Crust image

"There are few aromas more comforting than that of apple pie. This is as easy and old-school a dessert as bananas Foster and, thanks to a generous dousing with Calvados or Apple Jack, equally boozy." From the WSJ, January 25, 2013 *posting for safe keeping.

Time 15m

Yield 4 , 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup demerara sugar
1 star anise, substitute 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
4 large crisp apples, peeled and sliced, one per person
1/4 cup calvados or 1/4 cup apple jack
4 scoops vanilla ice cream or 4 scoops creme fraiche, for serving

Steps:

  • 1. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt butter and cook until it foams. Once foaming subsides, stir in sugar and spice and cook 1 minute to allow flavors to meld.
  • 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.
