Want to make the butter sautéed apples?

Dice one apple into small, bite size pieces. Heat a cast iron, and add 1-2 tbsp of butter. Add apples and stir until well coated. In a separate bowl, combine 1 tbsp erythritol & 1 tsp cinnamon. Stir to combine and sprinkle half the mixture on the apples as they cook. Continuing stirring for 5-8 minutes, adding more cinnamon sugar if needed. Once apples are done, they will be soft and caramelized.

Enjoy!
