Apple-Maple Filling
http://www.eatingwell.com/recipes/apple_maple_filling.html
Here we cook fresh apple slices with a touch of maple syrup and a hint of cinnamon, perfect for filling Whole-Wheat Crepes or topping French toast.
8 servings, about 1/3 cup each | Active Time: 20 minutes | Total Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon canola oil
- 1 teaspoon butter
- 3 pounds apples (about 8 medium), such as Cortland, Jonathan, McIntosh, Northern Spy or Gravenstein, peeled, cored and sliced (10 cups)
- 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preparation
- Heat oil and butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add apples (the pan will seem quite full, but the apples will cook down considerably) and cook, stirring from time to time, for 5 minutes.
- Add maple syrup and cinnamon; cook, stirring or shaking the pan from time to time, until the apples are tender and the filling has thickened, about 10 minutes longer. Stir in vanilla.
