this is actually a recipe for apple pie filling! i was baking a pie one time, and couldn't stop myself from snacking on the filling as i prepared the crust......so i decided to convert this for use in bentos. :3 just be careful, as this can leak if you put too much of the juice/sauce made by the apples in your bento (that is, if yours isn't watertight). feel free to introduce or substitute other ingredients, so long as you stick to the basic recipe. the recipe also makes ALOT, so if i were you i'd cut the recipe down to size.
Seasoned Apples
6 cups apples, peeled and sliced into cubes
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
dash of salt
Combine dry ingredients, dump over apples in a bowl, stirring till apples are covered in seasonings. (Don't overstir, though, as it could make too much sauce or damage the apples.)
