Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Apples

    Wash the apples thoroughly under running water. Peel the apples using a vegetable peeler, then core and slice them into thin wedges.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large saucepan, combine the sliced apples, brown sugar, maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and water.

  2. 3

    Cook the Mixture

    Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Stir occasionally to ensure the apples are coated with the sugar and spices.

  3. 4

    Stew the Apples

    Cover the saucepan and let the apples stew for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender and have released their juices. If you prefer a thicker consistency, uncover the pot and let it simmer for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Serving

  1. 5

    Serve Warm

    Remove from heat and let cool slightly. If desired, stir in the butter until melted. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.
