Garlic butter Apple Crisp Cups

Method

1. Gather and prep everything first: unsalted butter, granulated sugar, all-purpose flour and set within reach of the stove.
2. Warm a splash of olive oil in a heavy pan over medium heat, then add the fennel bulb and cook until soft and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes.
3. Add the apple crisp and let it brown-butter, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Stir in the eggs along with a good pinch of salt, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan.
5. Add the crushed tomatoes and let it reduce until it just coats the back of a spoon.
6. Off the heat, brighten it up with toasted nuts and a final crack of pepper.
7. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
