Stewed Apples (No Sugar Added)
Stewed apples are a nutritious addition to breakfast pancakes, waffles or French toast. The best part is that "no sugar" is required and you can't even tell it's missing!
Equipment
Cutting board
Knife
Small pot with lid
Liquid measuring cup
Ingredients
- ½ cup 100% apple juice
- 2 large Granny smith apples chopped
- ground cinnamon as desired
- ground ginger as desired
Instructions
- Slice the apple into quarters and then diced it to the size of your liking. I like to leave the skin on the apple so that I can get the fiber boost!
- Add the apples, the apple juice and a few dashes of cinnamon and ginger to a small stockpot. Bring it to a simmering boil.
- After it reaches a simmering boil, turn it down to low and cook for no more than 10 minutes. Add more cinnamon and ginger as desired. Stir well after adding the spices.
Notes
- You may consider adding honey, sugar or maple syrup if the tartness is too much
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week
- Warm it and add on top of my Eggless French Toast recipe
- Replace the syrup with these stewed apples and eat on top of pancakes, waffles, biscuits or French Toast.
- Mix in with oatmeal for a sweetener
- Warm and eat it with a little ice cream for a dessert!
- Warm and add whip cream on top for a dessert!
- Stir into Greek yogurt to add flavor and sweetness
