Yield Makes 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup brandy or cider
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch of ground cloves
1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice, plus zest of 1 lemon
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and cut into eighths
3 McIntosh apples, peeled, cored, and cut into eighths
Pinch of salt

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. In a 12-by-14-inch roasting pan, or an 11-by-17-inch baking pan, combine the brandy, cinnamon, cloves, lemon juice and zest, brown sugar, and butter. Add all the apples, and toss.
  • Roast until the apples are very soft and golden brown, about 30 minutes. Transfer apples to the bowl of a food processor; pulse until smooth. Stir in the salt, and serve warm.
