Apple Compote with the Stovers

My friend Jackie submitted this apple challenge entry. It's an apple compote, prepared by her mom, Becky. It's a simple preparation- peel, core, and chop apples, and cook them on the stove with a little sugar and spice. The compote is chunky and soft. It went really well with the dinner we had at their house of baked salmon and potatoes au gratin. It also went well with the apple walnut caramel pie Jackie got at Catoctin Mountain Orchard. Cheers!
