Vegan Sautéed Cinnamon Apples
These vegan sauteed cinnamon apples are made on the stovetop and the best fall topping for fresh pancakes or waffles. They’re also fantastic on ice cream or perfect all on their own. These dairy-free sauteed apples are gluten-free, include a low-sugar option, and taste like warm apple pie filling with just 5 simple ingredients. Our favorite way to use up excess apples!
Ingredients
- 6 firm small apples peeled and cut into large chunks
- 1-3 Tbsp light brown sugar or coconut sugar or a mix of the 2
- 3 Tbsp vegan butter or refined coconut oil
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 Tbsp water or bourbon
Instructions
- Heat a medium to large saute pan over medium-high heat and melt your vegan butter.
- When the butter has melted, add your chopped apples, stir (or toss) to coat, and cover. Let it cook like this for 5 minutes.
- Then, add the sugar, cinnamon, and water. Cover and let them cook for another 7 minutes or until soft, stirring often.
- Serve these warm cinnamon apples hot either on their own or used to top everything from pancakes and waffles to ice cream and oatmeal. They also make a great side dish.
