Crustless Apple Pie

Blending a variety of apples (sweet, tart, crispy and soft) gives this all American favorite dessert a complex apple flavor without all the carbs. Some apples remain a bit crisp while others cook to a yummy softness.
These cinnamon apples also pair well with grilled pork chops, are the perfect flair atop pancakes and waffles, or tossed into crepes.

Ingredients
  

  • 3-4 assorted medium sized apples, peeled or unpeeled; cored and diced;
  • 1 tablespoon Simply Ghee
  • 1.5 tablespoon maple sugar; Turbinado or other raw sugar works too
  • 1/8 teaspoon Redmond's Real Salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8-1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg; to your taste
  • 1-2 pinches ground clove
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup; for drizzling
  • splash of water; as needed

Instructions
 

  • Over medium heat, melt the ghee. Add the apples and sugar; cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently till apples produce some moisture.
  • Add the vanilla, spices and a splash of water.
  • Cook for 10-15 minutes til the apples are softened to a consistency you prefer. If they are too dry, add another splash of water.
  • Taste and adjust seasonings. Cook for another few minutes.
  • Remove from heat and cool or serve. Sprinkle a dash of cinnamon and add whipped cream. (optional)

Notes

Apples will keep in fridge for a couple of days. Can eat cold or reheat.
A dollop of whipped cream makes it extra special.
