Ingredients
- 4 tart apples peeled, cored, and cut into 1 inch to 1½ inch chunks
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground cardamom
Instructions
- Stir together the apple chunks, sugar, water, cinnamon, and cardamom in a medium pan.
- Heat the mixture over medium-high heat to bring it to a simmer, stirring the apples often.
- Lower the heat a little to maintain the simmer, then cook the apples for about 5 minutes, stirring a few times—until the mixture has thickened and the apple pieces are a little soft but with a light crunch in the center.
- Remove the pan from the heat and allow the apples to cool for 5 minutes. Serve the sauce while it's still warm.
Notes
- For Spiced Apples with a stronger spice flavor, you can double the amounts of cinnamon and cardamom called for in the recipe.
