I just made this. I used Celestial Seasonings Cinnamon apple spice tea. The flavor of the tea tricks my mind into thinking the dish is sweeter. I reduced the cinnamon to 1 tsp & the cloves to 1/2 tsp. I think it's sweet enough w/the apples & didn't use the syrup, 1% milk, & for me,this is a dessert - 4/16/13
