Apple Topping for Fried Apple Spice Sticks
If you want to try something other than ice cream to top the Fried Apple Spice Sticks, definitely make the apple topping that goes on my Spiced Apple Pancakes.
Apple Topping Ingredients

For the apple topping, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the apples, brown sugar, apple pie spice, and water. Stir these ingredients together and prepare the water and corn starch mixture in a small bowl. Add the water and corn starch mixture to the apple mixture and cook it all together for 10-15 minutes. This will thicken the topping and be the fruity sweetness you will pile on the Fried Apple Spice Sticks. Some people may even want seconds of the topping, without the sticks! Yes, it’s that good!
