Preserving Apples: A Guide to Making Sugar-Free Apple Compote

ADVERTISEMENT

Get your apples ready:



Begin by cleaning the apples well.



Remove the apple peels if you want a smoother compote, or keep them on for more fiber.



Cut the apples into even pieces. This makes sure they are cooked uniformly.



Make the apples into a dish.



Put the apple slices in a big pot.



Put a little water in the pot until the bottom is covered (around half an inch). This stops the apples from sticking and helps them soften without requiring extra sugar.



If you want, you can include a cinnamon stick, a bit of nutmeg, or a few drops of vanilla extract. These flavors go well with the apples without being too strong for their sweet taste.



Cook slowly.



Heat the water until it simmers softly, then put a lid on the pot.



Cook the apples for 20-30 minutes until they are soft and have turned into a thick sauce. Stir from time to time to prevent them from sticking to the pot.

Keep it cool and save it for later.

Once the apples are cooked as much as you prefer, take them off the heat.

If you used a cinnamon stick, take it out before storing.

Let the compote cool down completely before putting it in sealed containers.

Keep safe.

You can keep your apple sauce in the fridge for two weeks.

To store the compote for a longer time, put it in bags or containers that can be frozen. If you store the compote correctly, it can stay good in the freezer for many months.

How to serve: Use your apple compote on top of oatmeal, yogurt, or pancakes. It also works great when added to baked goods or enjoyed as a healthy dessert by itself.
