Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
Peel, core, and slice the apples into 1/4-inch thick slices.
Place the apple slices in a large mixing bowl and drizzle with lemon juice. Toss to coat the slices evenly.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
Sprinkle the sugar-spice mixture over the apple slices and toss until the apples are evenly coated.
Transfer the apple slices to a 9x13 inch baking dish, arranging them evenly.
Cut the butter into small pieces and scatter them over the top of the apples.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the edges are slightly caramelized.
Remove the baking dish from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
Serve the baked apple slices warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
