Chef's tip
Season to taste - salt substitutes can taste bitter in larger amounts, so start with less.

Instructions

1
Combine the apple chunks, water, grated ginger, ground cinnamon, maple syrup, and salt in a large saucepan. Stir to coat the apples evenly.
2
Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are completely tender and collapse easily when pressed with a spoon, about 20–25 minutes.
