Time 45m

Yield Makes 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 pounds apples
1 cinnamon stick
2 to 4 tablespoons sugar
3/4 cup water
2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

Steps:

  • Peel, core, and cut the apples into 1/2-inch-thick slices. In a large saucepan, combine apples with the cinnamon stick, sugar, and water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until apples are tender, 30 to 35 minutes. (If sauce begins to stick to the bottom of the pan, add 2 to 4 tablespoons more water.)
  • Remove from heat; discard cinnamon stick. Stir in lemon juice.
