Recipe adapted from Joy Food Sunshine(https://joyfoodsunshine.com/stovetop-cinnamon-apples/)
Ingredients
- 3 apples (about 3 cups, chopped)
- 2 tbsp water
- 1 tbsp salted butter (or coconut oil)
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
- 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- Wash hands with soap and water.
- Scrub apples with a clean vegetable brush under running water.
- Cut apples into same-sized pieces (about ½-1”cubes).
- Put apples pieces into a skillet with 2 tablespoons water. Cover the pan and cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples become slightly soft and water is absorbed.
- Add 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet. Stir apples and butter together until all the apples are coated. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring every minute or so, until the apples become soft. You may need to cover them for the last 2 minutes.
- Add maple syrup, cinnamon, salt and vanilla. Stir until well mixed.
- Cook for about 5 more minutes, stirring every minute until the apples reach your desired softness.
- Remove from heat and serve.
Notes
You can choose whether or not you peel your apples. Store leftovers in a glass container with a lid in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
