Instructions

Peel, core, halve the apples and slice each half into 4 wedges. Place in a large bowl with the lemon juice. Fold apples so each is evenly coated with lemon juice.
Add sugar and fold into apples.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat.
Add the apples and cook until the sugar dissolves and the juice begins to simmer.
Cover and reduce heat to medium-low, and cook until the apples soften slightly and releases their juices (approximately 5 minutes).
Remove skillet from heat and strain apples in a colander, catching the juice in a bowl. Return the juice to the skillet and simmer over medium heat until it bubbles and begins to turn amber and thicken (about 10 minutes).
In a large bowl, mix the apples with the juice from the apples and add the apple spice and nutmeg. Let cool completely.

Notes

You can keep in the freezer for up to 6 month.
Filling doesn't not need to be completely thawed before baking.
Can this be made sugar free? Yes! Use granulated sugar free alternative of your choice like monk fruit.
