Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 6

5 pounds Macintosh apples, quartered and cored

¾ cup water
¼ cup lemon juice
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon nutmeg

Steps:

  • Place apples in a large pot with the sugar, water, and lemon juice. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the apples are very soft and lose their shape, about 25 minutes.
  • Remove the apples from the heat and allow to cool slightly. Puree apples in a food processor or food mill. If using the food processor, strain the apples through a sieve to remove the pieces of apple skin.
  • Stir in the cinnamon and nutmeg. Serve at room temperature or refrigerate and serve cold.
