Southern Fried Apples

A good friend of mine shared this recipe with me just this morning. I can just imagine these poured over a big chunk of homemade pound cake, topped with a huge dollop of vanilla ice cream. I'm drooling just thinking about it!

Southern Fried Apples1/4 cup butter)
6 tart apples, cored, peeled and sliced
1 tsp. Lemon juice
1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
1/8 tsp. Salt
Garnish: apple pie spice

Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add apples evenly in a single layer (mine aren't very singular!). Sprinkle with lemon juice, brown sugar and salt. Cover; cook over low heat for 15 minutes, until apples are tender and juicy. Sprinkle with spice and serve warm (with ice cream!!). Serves about 6.
