This is a great way to use up apples that are too old to eat raw. Try it alone or as a topping for ice cream, yogurt, pancakes, oatmeal, or cold cereal. To make 3-4 dessert servings, you will need:

• 2 apples
• 2 Tbsp. butter
• 2 Tbsp. brown sugar
• 1 tsp. cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp. nutmeg
• 1/4 tsp. ginger
• skillet with lid

Remove cores from apples and dice into approximately 1/4-inch cubes.

Melt butter in skillet. Reduce heat to medium-low. Add brown sugar and spices and stir until sugar dissolves.

Add apples. Stir until thoroughly coated. Cook, covered, stirring frequently, 5 minutes or until apples are tender. If sugar starts burning, lower heat.
