6 servings
- 3 lbs apples (about 6 medium; a mix of granny smith and honeycrisp works well), peeled, cored, and cut into 1-inch chunks
- ⅓ cup water
- 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
Chef's tipUse the same amount. Coconut sugar has a mild caramel flavor, and baked goods come out a little darker and slightly less sweet. - ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- ⅛ tsp kosher salt
Instructions
- 1
Combine the apple chunks, water, lemon juice, sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a large saucepan. Stir to coat the apples evenly.

Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for 18–22 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are completely tender and collapse easily when pressed with a spoon.
