ingredients

• 3 lbs tart apples, sliced cored, and peeled (I actually prefer to leave the peels on, but that's up to you)
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 dash ground nutmeg
• 3 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 -3 tablespoons butter, sliced into a few thin pieces

directions

1. Put first 5 ingredients in your crock pot.
2. Stir well to coat the apples with all the spices.
3. Dot with butter.
4. Cook on low about 4 hours.
5. Stir once during cooking.
6. Since crock pot temperatures vary, you should check to make sure that apples are soft but not mushy like apple sauce.
7. It should have the consistency of apple pie filling.
8. This is DELICIOUS warm with vanilla ice cream!
9. It's good plain too.

Not only is this a great tasting dish, it filled the house with a wonderful aroma. (We couldn't wait for it to finish cooking). Great tasting and so easy to prepare. I served this with left over ham. Yum!!!! Thank you so much, SF Girl.

What a tasty side dish on a cool day. Very adaptable--easy to halve or double. The best part? This is SO easy. Thanks, Shiraz.

Served this today to my book club - they LOVED it! I used unpeeled Golden Delicious apples, only 1 Tblsp. butter, and substituted Splenda for the sugar. Also added pure (not imitation) vanilla - really made it "fabulous"! Everyone wanted the recipe!
