Ingredients

• 2 medium Granny Smith apples
• 1 cup Water
• 0.5 cup Granulated erythritol
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon Xanthan gum
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Start by peeling, coring, and grating the apples. Use a box grater or a food processor for quick results.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, combine the grated apples, water, granulated erythritol, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir to combine.

Step 3

Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally.

Step 4

Once the mixture reaches a boil, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 15 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

Step 5

After 15 minutes, the apples should be soft and the mixture should be fragrant. Remove the saucepan from heat.

Step 6

Whisk in the vanilla extract and lemon juice until well integrated.

Step 7

Sprinkle the xanthan gum over the mixture and whisk thoroughly to avoid any clumps. The syrup will start to thicken as it cools.

Step 8

Let the syrup cool slightly, then transfer it to a blender. Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and all apple pieces are fully incorporated.

Step 9

Pour the smooth syrup back into the saucepan and simmer for an additional 5 minutes over low heat to achieve the desired consistency.

Step 10

Allow the syrup to cool before transferring it to a sterilized jar or bottle. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
