Description

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup water
• 6 granny smith apples
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon
• 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans, optional for topping

Directions

• If using nuts: toast in a medium skillet over medium-low heat for 6-8 minutes or until slightly fragrant. Remove nuts from skillet.
• Peel and chop apples into small, fairly uniform pieces. Turn the skillet onto medium-low heat and add water. Add apples and cinnamon to taste, stirring and cooking until apples are softened, about 6-10 minutes. If all of the water evaporates, add a little more water as the apples cook.
• Add cooked apples to serving bowls and top with toasted nuts and/or a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of freshly whipped cream. You can also let the apples cool and stir them into plain or vanilla yogurt. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
