STEP 1:  Prepare a Lemon Water Bath.  Fill a large mixing bowl halfway with water.  Juice the lemons and add both the juice and lemon halves into the water.  Dice the washed, cored, unpeeled apples and place them into the lemon water to prevent browning.

STEP 2:  Make the Cinnamon Sugar Coating.  In a separate bowl, mix the sugar and cinnamon until well combined.

STEP 3:  Drain and Dry the Apples.  Drain the apples from the lemon water and pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

STEP 4:  Cook the First Batch of Apples.  In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium-high heat.  Add 1 teaspoon of chipotle to the oil.  Toss half of the apples with half of the cinnamon sugar mixture until well coated.  Add the coated apples to the skillet and cook, stirring often, until the coating is thick and caramelized. This should take about 5-7 minutes.  Transfer the cooked apples into a bowl and set aside.

STEP 5:  Cook the Second Batch of Apples.  In the same skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil over medium-high heat.  Add the remaining 1 teaspoons of chipotle peppers.  Toss the remaining apples with the rest of the cinnamon sugar mixture.  Add the coated apples to the skillet and cook, stirring often, until the coating is thick and caramelized.

STEP 6:  Combine and Serve.  Turn off the heat and add the previously cooked apples back into the skillet with the fresh batch.  Add the salt and stir the apples together until well combined and evenly coated.
