Ingredients


What (your ingredients):


2 tablespoons butter


4 gala apples


Juice of ½ lemon


Dash of cinnamon


Directions


How (your directions):


Heat butter over medium heat in a pan until melted.  Then turn heat to low.


Meanwhile, slice gala apples into ¼ inch slices and add to the melted butter.


Add the juice of ½ lemon and a dash of cinnamon, and sauté for about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally.


Once the apples are softened, simply transfer to a serving dish and enjoy hot or warm.


Why (the science):  Apple skins are high in fiber and contain antioxidants, so be sure to leave them on the apple slices.  This will help keep you full and you’ll get extra nutritional benefits than if you peeled them.   Plus, the red apple skins look so pretty!
