For a richer flavor, consider adding a strip of bacon, diced, and sautéed before adding the butter.
Adjust the amount of brown sugar and vinegar to your personal preference for sweetness and tanginess.
Thinly sliced apples like Honeycrisp or Fuji work well. Make sure you don’t skip peeling!
This dish is best served warm. It can also be made ahead of time and reheated, as the flavors meld together beautifully over time.
