List of Ingredients
2 large cooking apples
2 tablespoons butter or margarine (I used Take Care Light margarine)
3 packets of Splenda
Apple Pie Spice to taste
1/4 cup waterRecipe
Core and slice apples, making 4 thick slices from each. Melt butter or margarine in a heavy non-stick skillet. Place apples in the skillet in a single layer. Brown on each side over medium heat. Reduce heat to simmer, and cover tightly. Let simmer until just tender. Do not overcook. If water cooks out before apples are tender, add a little more, about 1 or 2 tablespoons. When apples are tender, sprinkle with the Splenda and apple pie spice to suit your taste. I used a little less than 1 teaspoon of the spice. Cover and let stand a few minutes to moisten the spice in the steam. Serve with any meat. Especially good with ham, pork, or chicken. 4 servings.
NOTE: Tart cooking apples work best, but I have even used Red Delicious and Gala apples with good results. As long as you don't overcook and let them turn to mush
