Spiced Apples: Easy Recipe Perfect For Fall

There is probably no better aroma than spiced apples cooking in the kitchen! Even the words sound yummy! This is a super easy recipe I stumbled upon, but it is sooo good and smells heavenly. And it can be delicious alone, fantastic on oatmeal (which I am trying to eat everyday now - more on that later,) and too darn good with some vanilla ice cream!

The only things I did different on this recipe is switched out Splenda for some brown sugar and the light butter spread for real butter. I did not use too much sugar either - probably less than 1/4 cup (my kids gobbled it all up, so I guess I used enough anyway!)

10 Gala apples, peeled and cut into 1-in slices
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp cinnamon
6 tsp Splenda  (I used brown sugar here.)
2 tbsp light buttery spread (I used regular butter.)

Put all spices into small bowl and stir, set aside.
Melt the butter in a medium size saucepan, add apple slices.
Spoon spice mixture over apples, stirring to cover completely. Cover and cook on medium heat for 20 minutes, stirring frequently.
