This recipe is easy to personalize, fun to make, and tastes like pure magic.
Serves 7 cups
YOU'LL NEED:
- 6 pounds apples (approxim 16 medium apples)
- 1 to 2 cups water or apple juice/cider (use less if you want more chunky consistency... we use 2 cups)
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon (more or less to taste)
- optional: additional fall spices (nutmeat, allspice, etc.), brown sugar or maple syrup to sweeten
HERE'S HOW:
- Peel, core, and cut up apples (or use the corer pictured... I'll link below!).
- In a large pot or dutch oven, combine all ingredients including spices and sweeteners (if desired). Place over medium heat and stir occasionally for 25 minutes.
- TIME TO BLEND! Use an emersion blender, food processor, or blender (work in batches if needed) and puree to desired texture. Add more spices if needed and serve immediately or store in the refrigerator.
