This was really really yummy. I thought it would need a bit more spice but the simmering of the apples with the stick for 1 hour really did the trick. I did use butter instead of margarine because I don't cook with marg (killed the low fat/low calories thing but oh well), it sure was yummy. I normally just put the raw apples in the pastry and go for it, so this was a nice variation. Thanks Katia.
