dukeswalker's Note:

A yummy, healthier, gluten free version of a family favorite! **I've also made this with fresh peaches - just add a teeny bit less water and a couple of dashes of nutmeg and cook a little less - YUMMY!!**

1. Preheat the oven to 350. Coat a pie dish with cooking spray. In a large bowl, toss together the apples, sugar, water, cornstarch, 1 teaspoons cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined. Set aside.

Leave out the sugar - apples cook up so sweet, you don't need it! If you really like it syrupy sweet, add a little apple juice concentrate instead. Best to avoid sugar whenever possible.

This was really easy to make and came out excellent. Served it at Thanksgiving and my friends destroyed the leftovers upon my bringing it back home. I am told I have to make this again for our Xmas dinner. Awesome! Also, I used almond meal instead of almond flour and it came out excellent. Definitely best served warm with vanilla ice cream!

This is an excellent easy recipe. I've started experimenting with different fruits and recently did an apple, ginger, pear and lychee combination that was pretty tasty.
