Yield 16 ounces, enough for 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

4 tart apples, peeled, cored and sliced into eighths
1 tablespoon sugar (optional)
1/4 lemon
1 vanilla bean

Steps:

Place the apples in a saucepan with the sugar (if using). With a very sharp knife, remove the rind from the lemon (avoiding the bitter pith). Then mince the rind and add it to the saucepan. Squeeze the juice of the lemon into the saucepan, add the vanilla bean, cover, and cook over medium heat for half an hour. If the mixture becomes too dry, add a tablespoon of water, but the idea is to steam the apples in their own juices. Serve with healthy hot cakes.
