This was easy, quick and delicious. It didn't need the powdered sugar or any other topping, although some family members added maple syrup! It is important to slice the apples thinly, so they cook evenly. Highly recommended!

There's no amount for the butter in the ingredients. So I used 3 big tablespoon of butter. I melted it in the oven. It covered all the baking pan so I guess it was enough. I used Cortland apples. It's so yummy and easy to do. Thanks for posting :) Made for I recommend tag game

This is fabulous because it's simple, delicious and not too sweet! I used a mandonlin to thin slice the apples and only cooked them in the butter for 5 minutes. That way they still had some texture!

YUM! This was very good and so easy to make. I would not change a thing. Loved the cinnamon and apples with this. We did set out maple syrup for people to use. We did use buttermilk to make this as we needed to use it. I adopted this chef for the *Spring PAC 2008* game
