Ingredients

1 kg apples (a mix of sweeter and tarter ones)
50 ml water
20-30 g sugar (depending on the sweetness of the apples)
½ lemon, juiced
½ vanilla pod or 1 pinch of cinnamon
toasted baguette or plain yogurt to serve

Method

Tap a step once you've finished it.

Peel and core the apples and cut them into pieces of about 2 cm, sprinkling with the lemon juice as you go so they don't brown.
Put them in a pan with the water, the sugar and the scraped vanilla (or cinnamon).
Cover and cook over low-medium heat, stirring now and then, for 15-20 minutes until the apples are completely soft and falling apart.
Crush roughly with a fork or potato masher (for a smoother version, blend with a stick blender). If it's too thin, cook uncovered for a few more minutes.
Serve lukewarm or cold, with toasted baguette or yogurt. It keeps for 4-5 days in a sealed jar in the fridge.
