Instructions
- Heat the oven to 375°F with a rack in the middle position. Mist the bottom and sides of a 9-inch round cake pan with cooking spray, line the bottom with kitchen parchment, then mist the parchment. In a small saucepan over medium-high, cook the butter, swirling the pan often, until the milk solids at the bottom are deeply browned and the butter has a nutty aroma, 3 to 5 minutes. Scrape the butter into a small heatproof bowl. Set aside to cool while you slice the apples.
