Ingredients

4 servings

4 medium apples (about 1 ½ lb), peeled, cored, and sliced ¼-inch thick
2 tbsp unsalted butter
Ingredient note
Though high-fat foods can worsen reflux, this recipe has only a small amount of butter (~1 1/2 teaspoons per serving), making it likely fine for many with GERD. If you prefer to always avoid butter, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
2 tbsp pure maple syrup
1 tsp ground ceylon cinnamon
¼ tsp pure vanilla powder
¼ cup water
1 pinch salt

Instructions

1
Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat until foamy and just beginning to subside, about 1 minute.
2
Add the apple slices, maple syrup, Ceylon cinnamon, vanilla powder, water, and salt. Stir to coat the apples evenly.
