Cook the Apples
In a large pot, combine the chopped apples and water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 20 minutes until the apples are soft.

Mash the Apples
Using a potato masher or a fork, mash the cooked apples to release their juices.

Strain the Mixture

Sweeten to Taste
