Cinnamon Apples

October23

Looking for a super simple, super tasty treat?  Apple slices are a sweet and easy snack.  But does the thought of eating more browned apple slices less that thrill you?  Here is a way to make those apple slices a little more tasty with no extra work.  And this way, they are pre-browned.  You’ll won’t even be able to tell that they were sliced early.

Recipe: Cinnamon Apples

Ingredients

  • 1 Apple (We like the tart/sweet variety)
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Slice the apple. Toss with cinnamon. I told you it was easy.
