Preheat oven to 400˚F. Core 2 large apples, such as Gala, Fuji or Honeycrisp. Cut each apple into 8 wedges and set in a bowl. Add 1 Tbsp. lemon juice, 1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon and some pinches of ground nutmeg, ground clove and salt. Now toss to coat the apples.

Place 2 Tbsp. butter in a large ovenproof skillet and set over medium-high heat. When butter is melted, set the apple wedges in the skillet, cut side down, and cook 3 minutes. Turn each apple wedge over and then remove skillet from the heat. Measure 2 Tbsp. of brown sugar and sprinkle some of it on each apple wedge. Tear a few fresh sage leaves in half and set them around the apples. Set skillet in the oven and roast apples 10 minutes, or until just tender.

Serve the roasted apples as a side dish for such things as our Thrifty Kitchens sausages. You could also serve them with pork chops, roast pork and baked ham.
