Ingredients
- 4 cooking apples (approximately 1 lb 2 oz), peeled, cored and cut into ¾-inch pieces
- 3 Granny Smith apples (approximately 9 oz), peeled, cored and cut into ¾-inch pieces
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 4–5 tbsp caster sugar
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ice cream, to serve (optional)
Method
- Toss the peeled apple pieces from both apple varieties with the lemon juice in a large saucepan as they are cut, so they keep their colour.
- Sprinkle the caster sugar and cinnamon over the apples and add a splash of water to the base of the pan.
- Cover the pan and stew the apples over low heat for 12 to 15 minutes, stirring once or twice, until they soften and slump but some pieces still hold their shape.
- Taste the stewed apples for sweetness, let them cool slightly, and serve them warm with ice cream if liked.
