Ingredients

Yields 4 servings

  • 750 g apples
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 1 tsp vanilla sugar (optional)
  • sugar, to taste

Directions

Cook the sauce

Peel the apples, cut them into wedges and remove the cores. Place the apples in a saucepan with the water. Cook, covered, over low heat until tender.

Stir the sauce through and season with vanilla sugar and sugar to taste.

Serving

Notes

  • Use tart apples for the best flavour — sweet apples produce a flat, dull sauce.
  • Apple sauce is the base for apple cake and apple meringue.
  • Sprinkle sugar over the warm sauce to prevent a skin from forming.
  • Can be frozen in portions.
