Aunt Rocky’s Quick Apple Pie Filling or Topping (Sugar Free, Low Carb)

Pour pie filling into a medium size pan, and chop to a small dice. I use a strawberry chopper. You may use food processor if you want, but be careful or you’ll end up with apple sauce.

Add butter and all of the spices. Heat over medium heat until butter melts and sweetener dissolves.

Add to muffin recipes or yogurt, make mini apple tarts, use on pancakes or ice cream as a topping. Store in refrigerator or freezer in small containers, and defrost one when you need it.

Yields 2 cups of filling/topping, or 16 servings of 2 tablespoons each.

Notes:
• To use Lucky Leaf Lite as a pie filling, omit the chopping step, and add all of the ingredients listed. Otherwise it will be rather bland.
