With only 3-ingredients (2, if you don’t want to add the ground cinnamon), this recipe is easy to make and so tasty.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 cups of small diced apples-apples are washed, peeled, cored and cut into small chunks or into desired sized pieces (I used organic Gala apples).
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, optional

Instructions

  1. Scrub clean the apples under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel. Then, peel the skin off, cut the ends off, cut the apple into quarters, and remove the core. 
  2. Cut the apples into same-sized small pieces (or into pieces/sizes you desire or need)and measure 2 cups.
  3. Add a tablespoon of butter to a saucepan and allow it to melt. Once the butter has melted, add the diced apples and the ground cinnamon. Mix to coat the apples evenly with the ground cinnamon.
  4. Cover with a lid and allow the apples to cook over medium-low heat (while stirring it a few times) for about 10 minutes.
  5. The apples are ready once they have softened and are fork tender (meaning a fork is easily able to pierce through the apple).
  6. Once the apples have softened, remove the lid. If there is liquid in the pan (as shown in the picture above), increase the heat to medium and allow the apples to cook (with the lid off) for about 3-5 minutes or until most of the liquid has evaporated.
  7. Allow to cool and spoon it over pancakes, waffles or serve it as a side! 
  8. Or transfer to a glass food container, allow to cool completely, cover with a lid and keep it in the refrigerator.
