Ingredients
  

  • 6 Granny Smith Apple Cored, peeled, and sliced
  • 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Apple Pie Spice
  • 1/2 cup Apple Juice Or apple cider
  • 1 tablespoon Unsalted Butter
  • 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon Water

Instructions
 

  • Core, peel, and slice the apples in 1/2-inch pieces. Place the apples into the skillet.
  • Sprinkle the granulated sugar on top and the apple pie spice. Pour the apple juice on the apples and mix well.
  • Cube the unsalted butter and place on top of the apples.
  • Cook on medium-high heat with lid on for 10 minutes. The apples will begin to soften. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes.
  • Once the apples are soft (but not mushy), mix together the slurry of cornstarch and water.
  • Slowly pour the cornstarch mixture into the apples, mixing continuously so the cornstarch does not clump.
  • Cook for an additional minute until thick glaze has formed.
  • Remove from the heat and enjoy immediately.
