Notes
- Chop apples into similar sized pieces for even cooking
- You may need to add a little extra water if you find the saucepan dries out before the apples have softened.
- The cooking time will depend on the size of the apple pieces and how soft you wish them to be.
- Many stewed apple recipes contain sugar or sweetener such as maple syrup. Personally, I do not think there is any need for sugar in this recipe, especially if you use sweeter apples and are serving them to young children. However, if you are making the apples for a pie or dessert and are using tart/cooking apples you may wish to add a little sugar at the start of cooking (around 1tbsp for every 1 to 2 apples).
