1 tsp

Instructions

Cut apples into cubes removing the core. You can leave on the skin or remove it. Whichever you prefer.

In a medium sized pot on medium heat allow the butter to melt. Add the apples and stir them until lightly coated in the butter.

Allow them to cook for 3 mins then add the cinnamon, all spice and nutmeg. Stir until apples are coated in spices. They will become very fragrant.

Continue to cook for another 3 mins then add the maple syrup.

Cook for approximately another 5 mins stirring frequently until the apples are soft.

Add them to oatmeal, pancakes, ice cream or toast.

Substitutions: For a sugar-free version omit the maple syrup. Add crushed walnuts or pecans for some healthy fat or protein. For a dairy free option use coconut oil instead of butter
