– 1 cup milk

Step-by-Step Instructions
To kick things off, I preheat my oven to 350°F (175°C). While that’s warming up, I peel, core, and slice my apples. I like to slice them fairly thinly to ensure they cook evenly. Next, I toss the sliced apples in a bowl with sugar, lemon juice, and cinnamon—just enough to give them a delightful coating. I let them sit for about 10 minutes to draw out their juices, making the filling even sweeter. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
