3-Ingredient Healthy Cooked Apples

1. 1

   Peel, core and slice apples. Add apples and juice to a pan over high heat and bring to a boil while covered.

2. 2

   Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-high and simmer, with the lid half on, for 20 minutes. Stir occasionally. Add the spices halfway through cooking time.

3. 3

   Cook time depends on the type of apple you use and how soft you prefer them. Add additional 1/4 - 1/2 cup juice if they get dry.

   Notes:

5. 5

   1. There are many types of cooking apples that work well here. I like Galas, Fujis, and Jonagolds. My grandma exclusively uses Ida Reds for baking. Different apples will yield different textures when cooked.

6. 6

   2. Use 100% apple juice for this-the cocktail varieties have tons of added sugars and additives. You may need an additional 1/4 to 1/2 cup of juice if the apples get dry during cooking.
