BEV'S OWN STEWED APPLES

Bev's Own Stewed Apples image

When fall rolls around, I find I have a craving for my mom's stewed apples. She never followed a recipe, but would somehow always manage to whip up the most flavorful apples you ever tasted! In an effort to recreate my mom's stewed apples, I came up with this recipe. We would usually have this as a side dish with supper, replacing applesauce. However, it would also be delicious served as a dessert with vanilla ice cream or over gingerbread or pound cake with a little whipped cream. I hope you will enjoy it!

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

4 tablespoons butter
7 cups cooking apples (thinly sliced, approximately 6, I like Granny Smith)
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 cup water

Steps:

In a 10" skillet (w/lid) melt butter over medium heat; turn off heat.
Mix in sugar and brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and add 1/2 cup water, stirring to combine.
Bring mixture to a boil and allow to boil until beginning to thicken.
Reduce heat to medium; stir in apple slices, turning to coat.
Cook over medium to medium high heat 4-5 minutes, stirring, allowing sauce to continue to thicken.
Reduce heat to low, cover apples and cook until tender, stirring occasionally, another 5-10 minutes, adding more water if necessary, until apples are tender (cooking time will depend on the thickness of your apple slices).
Sauce will thicken as it cools.

Ingredients

3 apples, peeled, cored and chopped (see tip)
2-4 tbsp caster or light brown soft sugar (depending on the sweetness of the apples)
1 tbsp lemon juice
½ tsp ground cinnamon

Steps:

Put the apples, sugar, lemon juice and cinnamon in a small pan with 1 tbsp water. Cover and cook over a medium heat for 5-10 mins, or until the apples are tender when pierced with the tip of a knife.
If you prefer a smoother mixture, continue to cook for a further 5 mins, uncovered, stirring frequently to break down the apples into a compote.
