6 medium sized apples
½ cup water
½ cup maple syrup
2 small cinnamon sticks
Core and cut the apple into wedges. (I use one of those apple corer-wedger thingies) dump the apple wedges into a stockpot or large saucepan with a heavy bottom. Dump the ½ cup water, ½ cup maple syrup and 2 cinnamon sticks into the pot and bring to a boil. Lower the heat, cover and simmer for 25-30 minutes, until apples are very tender. Remove the cinnamon sticks. Dump the mixture (in stages, if necessary) into the bender and blend the apple sauce until smooth. Some people use a sieve and throw away the apple skins, but they’re full of fiber and good for you, so I don’t recommend it. Allow to cool a bit and serve warm, or chill. You can also freeze it for up to 6 months, if so inclined.
