 | | Directions | - Select any variety of cooking apple desired or combine several varieties.
- Instead of peeling apples, cut into quarter sections with the peel still attached. Keeping the peel on the apple adds to the nutritional value of the food. Using a knife, remove the core, stem, and seeds.
- Add 1/2 to 1 cup of water to a saucepan and place on stovetop burner. Add apples and bring water and apples to a boil. Reduce heat after reaching a boil and continue cooking until apples are soft.
- Add a teaspoon of vanilla and a heaping teaspoon of cinnamon while apples are still cooking.
- Add 1/2 cup of sugar, adding more or less to achieve desired taste and flavor.
- Use an immersion blender and puree apples with peels attached until mixture is smooth. Add more water if consistency is too thick and season if desired with more cinnamon.
- Note: Some apples are juicier than others, so start with the least amount of water and check the consistency. Also, some apples are sweeter than others so add a small amount of sugar first and then sweeten to the desired taste.
