1-1/2 pounds Granny Smith apples, peeled and thinly sliced

3/4 teaspoon apple pie spice

1 tub (individual serving size, about 1/4 cup) caramel apple dip

1/2 cup Kellogg’s granola

2 Tablespoons toffee bar bits

To make filling, spray a large nonstick skillet with butter-flavored nonstick spray and set over medium heat. Add the apples and apple pie spice; cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until the apples are just tender, about 8 minutes. Stir in the caramel topping. Increase the heat and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the filling thickens, about 2 minutes. Spoon a scant 3/4 cup filling onto each of 4 serving dishes. Sprinkle each one with 2 Tablespoons cereal and 1/2 tablespoon toffee bits and serve at once.
