Slice the English muffins in half and set them aside.
Core and finely dice the fresh apple. Leave the skin on for extra nutrients and texture, if desired.
In a small skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.
Add the diced apple, ground cinnamon, and brown sugar to the skillet. Sauté for 4-5 minutes, or until the apples are tender and caramelized. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped nuts if using.
Toast the English muffin halves until golden brown, either in a toaster or under a broiler.
Spread 1 tablespoon of apple butter on each English muffin half.
Top each muffin half with the caramelized apple mixture, spreading it evenly.
Serve warm and enjoy for breakfast or as a snack!
