For a richer flavor, use brown butter instead of regular butter. If your apples are particularly tart, you may need to add a bit more brown sugar to achieve your desired sweetness. Taste and adjust accordingly. A pinch of nutmeg or allspice can also be added for extra warmth and spice. These apples are best served immediately, but leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently before serving.

Follow The Directions
01
StepIn a large skillet, combine the water, butter, and bourbon. (2 minutes)
02
StepPlace the skillet over medium heat and stir until the butter is melted and the mixture is fragrant. (3 minutes)
03
StepAdd the chopped apples, raisins, brown sugar, and cinnamon to the skillet. Stir to coat the apples evenly with the buttery-bourbon mixture. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil.(2 minutes)
04
StepReduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the apples are softened and the liquid has reduced to a thick, syrupy consistency. This should take approximately 8-10 minutes.
05
StepRemove the skillet from the heat and stir in the fresh lemon juice. This will add a touch of brightness and balance the sweetness of the dish. (1 minute)
06
