Baked Apple, Brown Sugar, Buttered Pastry, Sprinkled Cinnamon, Warm Nutmeg & Vanilla Bean

Apples soften beneath butter and brown sugar, cinnamon dusts the countertop, and golden pastry turns crisp at the edges. The kitchen is warm, the windows beginning to mist, while something sweet bakes in the oven. Rich, buttery and deliciously spiced, the scent fills the room before the first slice has even been cut. It’s the kind of afternoon that calls for another cup of tea, nowhere else to be, and something still warm waiting on the kitchen side. Autumn, served warm.
