Ingredients

  • 2 kg / 4.4 pounds apples
  • ½ cup / 120ml of water
  • 2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • pinch nutmeg or vanilla or mixed spice (all optional, all lovely)

Instructions

  • Choose your apples. I normally use what's in my fruit bowl, so a mix of Braeburn and dessert apples with colourful skins.
  • Core and slice your apples into 8 slices.
  • Add cinnamon and other spices, if using. This is the stuff that puts the wow in it!
  • Cook the apples with 120 ml water on medium heat for 20 minutes (lid on!) until soft and mushy.
  • Puree with a stick blender or in your food processor to your favourite consistency.
