Bev'S Own Stewed Apples - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 tablespoons butter
7 cups cooking apples (thinly sliced, approximately 6, I like Granny Smith)
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 cup water

Preparation

In a 10\" skillet (w/lid) melt butter over medium heat; turn off heat.
Mix in sugar and brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and add 1/2 cup water, stirring to combine.
Bring mixture to a boil and allow to boil until beginning to thicken.
Reduce heat to medium; stir in apple slices, turning to coat.
Cook over medium to medium high heat 4-5 minutes, stirring, allowing sauce to continue to thicken.
Reduce heat to low, cover apples and cook until tender, stirring occasionally, another 5-10 minutes, adding more water if necessary, until apples are tender (cooking time will depend on the thickness of your apple slices).
Sauce will thicken as it cools.
