Ingredients:
4 medium-sized apples (choose a sweet variety like Honeycrisp or Fuji)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1-2 tablespoons water
Sugar substitute, to taste (optional)
Instructions:
Prepare Apples:
Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges or bite-sized pieces.
Cook Apples:
In a non-stick skillet or saucepan, combine the sliced apples, ground cinnamon, lemon juice, and water. If you prefer a sweeter taste, you can add a sugar substitute at this stage.
Cook Over Medium Heat:
Cook the apples over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until they are tender but still have a slight crispness. This usually takes about 5-7 minutes.
Adjust Sweetness:
Taste the apples and adjust the sweetness if needed. Add more sugar substitute or cinnamon according to your preference.
Serve:
Once the apples are cooked to your liking, remove them from the heat. Serve the Weight Watchers Cinnamon Apples warm.
Notes:
Sugar Substitute:
Use a sugar substitute that’s suitable for cooking to keep the points low. Stevia, monk fruit, or erythritol are good options.
Variations:
Feel free to customize the recipe by adding a pinch of nutmeg or a splash of vanilla extract for additional flavor.
Serving Suggestions:
Enjoy the cinnamon apples on their own, or use them as a topping for yogurt, oatmeal, or as a filling for low-point crepes.
