Sauce: Caramel Apple Pecan Sauce

Source: The Olive Cellar, Northland Ave., Appleton

You can also use the Red Apple Balsamic Vinegar in a balsamic vinaigrette salad dressing, instead of using plain balsamic.

Ingredients

½ c. red apple balsamic vinegar (specialty oilery stores)
¾ c. brown sugar
2 Tbls. butter
pecans, coarsely chopped (optional)

Ways To Use . . .

Drizzle over ice cream
Add to oatmeal
Stir into yogurt
Spoon onto baked sweet potatoes
Drizzle over apple wedges or bananas

Instructions

Melt butter over medium heat, add red apple balsamic vinegar, brown sugar and pecans, if using.

Simmer until sugar dissolves completely (only talks 1-2 minutes). It will look syrupy, but will thicken and become saucy as it cools. Be careful not to burn! If you overcook, it will turn hard.

Store at room temperature, in a glass jar or other type of food storage container.

NOTE: Feel free to cut ingredients in half, if you don't need much.
