Spiced Apples and Raisins

1 tbsp unsalted butter or margarine
3 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and sliced in 1/2-inch-thick wedges
2 Leaves from fresh thyme sprigs
1/2c raisins
3/4c frozen apple juice concentrate, thawed
3 tbsp brown sugar
1/4tsp ground cinnamon
1/4tsp ground cloves
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
Sea salt to taste
ground pepper to taste

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the apples and thyme and coat in the butter; cook and stir for 6 minutes to give them some color. Toss in raisins and add apple juice. Stir in the brown sugar, cinnamon, and cloves. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add lemon juice and simmer until apples are tender but still hold their shape, about 10 minutes. Set aside and keep warm.
