Today was the first time I used this recipe, and I added the apples to pancakes!!! Amazing!!! For my tastes though, I'll be using a sweeter apple next time, like Honeycrisp.

What a great way to get a husband to eat apples! Mine will not touch raw apples but this recipe takes just a little of the crunch out of the apple, but not all of it. I used Honey Crisp and very little brown sugar and was rewarded with the words I love to hear, "you can make these again".

These are delicious. I use brown sugar instead. I put these on gluten free French toast and pancakes. They are just the right amount of sweetness. I make these all the time.

I thicken my apple pie filling with a little cornstarch and water and continue cooking until thick.

I used brown sugar and these apples turned out delicious -- sweet enough but not too sweet.

I wanted the liquid a little thicker so I added 1/3 cut light brown sugar. It turned out perfect. Used this recipe to as a topping for pancakes, and will definitely use it again.

Made this in a hurry. Just did one apple. Turned out Great, my entire family loved it and requested it again. It's so easy to make and modify, I'll definitely be making this again. I always have apples in the house. :-)
