Moscato caramelized apples

Ingredients

• 65 mL (¼ cup) butter
• 125 mL (½ cup) maple sugar
• 8 Lobo apples, peeled and cubed
• 250 mL (1 cup) Moscato (white wine)
• 65 mL (¼ cup) maple syrup
• 4 croissants, halved
• 125 mL (½ cup) toasted, sliced almonds
• Vanilla ice cream, to taste

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 300ºF.

2. In a large pan over medium-high heat, melt the butter with the maple sugar. Add the apples and sauté them until golden brown. Deglaze with half the Moscato and reduce until you obtain a syrupy consistency. Set aside.

3. In a small pot, boil the rest of the Moscato and the maple syrup. Reduce volume by half. Set aside.

4. Heat the croissants in the oven for about 5 minutes. In each plate, place a half-croissant, garnish with a generous helping of caramelized apples, sprinkle with almonds and drizzle with maple syrup-infused Moscato. Garnish with a scoop of ice cream and enjoy!
