One apple simmered with a little water, sugar, and cinnamon, then mashed chunky or blended smooth.

Ingredients

  • 1 medium apple
  • 3 Tbsp water
  • ½ tsp sugar (adjust for tart apples)
  • ⅛ tsp cinnamon

Directions

  • Peel and core the apple. Cut it into ½- to ¾-inch pieces.
  • Put the apple, water, sugar, and cinnamon in a 1-quart saucepan and bring to a simmer.
  • Cover and cook over medium-low heat for 20 to 25 minutes, until the apple pieces fall apart easily.
  • Mash for a chunky sauce, or blend for a smooth one. If it looks watery, simmer it uncovered for a few minutes.
