  • 7–8 apples
  • 2–3 Tbsp water
  • Optional
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice , adjust to taste (optional)
  • 1–2 tsp cinnamon powder (optional)
  • 1 tsp grated ginger or ginger powder (optional)

Method

  1. Ideally use sweet organic apples; no need to peel. Wash and rub under running water. Quarter, remove the cores and seeds, and chop into smaller cubes.
  2. Set a pot or saucepan over medium-high heat. Add apples, water, and any optional flavorings. Mix and bring to a light boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes or until the apples have softened.
  3. Turn off the heat and let sit covered while cooling. Blend if a smoother texture is desired.
