Maple Cinnamon Apple Toast in 15 Minutes

Instructions:

1. Wash and core the apple, then slice into 1/4-inch thick wedges.
2. Place 1 tbsp unsalted butter in a small skillet over medium-low heat until melted and bubbling.
3. Add the apple slices to the skillet and cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are dark golden and tender enough to be pierced easily with a fork.
4. Sprinkle 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon and 1 pinch salt over the apples and stir for 1 minute.
5. Drizzle 2 tbsp pure maple syrup into the pan and stir constantly for 60 seconds until the liquid thickens into a velvety glaze.
6. Toast 1 thick slice of sourdough or whole-grain bread until the edges are golden brown and the bread feels firm to the touch.
7. Pile the glazed apples onto the hot toast and drizzle any remaining syrup from the pan over the top.
