Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 30 mins
Total Time: 40 mins
Servings: 2
Yield: 2 servings

Ingredients

  1. 2 tablespoons butter
  2. 1 Royal Gala apple – peeled, cored and sliced
  3. 1 cup white wine
  4. ¼ cup brown sugar
  5. 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  6. ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  7. ⅓ cup golden raisins

Instructions

  1. Melt butter in a skillet over low heat. Add apples, and increase the heat to medium-high. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the white wine, brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, and golden raisins. Cook over medium heat until the liquid has reduced and is thick.
  2. This recipe is very flexible as to which ingredients you choose. I chose to use Dubonnet aperitif wine, although there’s enough sugar in the recipe that a drier wine could be used. Different apples or raisins could be used as well, these are just my personal preference.

We loved this recipe. Made it as written and served with pork. Wonderful and simple. It felt like we were eating out at a restaurant.

Loved it with a few changes. Used 1 apple and 1 pear. Only used 1/2 cup of liquid-1/4 cup of white wine and 1/4 cup of apple juice. Did not use white sugar used mixture of coconut sugar and date sugar to make it a little healthier. Cooled the sauce and wrapped it in fillo pastry sheets. Baked for 20 minutes in 350 oven. Everyone loved them!
Amber Snyder
very good recipe for putting over pancakes waffles just about anything I used regular raisins and dark brown sugar

I will serve these apples as a side dish. I used what I had in the kitchen. Peach wine, orange extract, dark raisins. The flavor was wonderful.

Very tasty sauce, and can be modified to your liking. I have made it with AND without the raisins due to particular preferences or because I didn’t have any on hand. The one in the pics is without raisins. Depending on what I want, I might omit the cinnamon and add a bit of Grand Marnier. Love this sauce and have used it also to eat alone… I DO recommend that you add a pinch of salt, it will brighten the flavor so much more.

Outstanding! Tastiest apple sauce I’ve ever made and goes excellent with pork chops.

I tried this with pork chops, it was delicious. Thank you.

I had to give up apple sauce (which I loved) when I was pregnant with my son. This sounded so good that I had to try it. It was wonderful, but since I wasn’t using it for a glaze or filling and it was too sweet. I’ll cut down the sugar next time…otherwise it would be really good on french toast as well. One other thing I changed was using dried cranberries which added in a great way! Thanks for the recipe! I can eat apple sauce again!

Wonderful recipe John. I used it on pork for a fabulous glaze. Will try with turnovers very soon. Thanks!
