Ingredients
- 6 medium Apples (preferably a mix of varieties like Granny Smith and Honeycrisp)
- 0.5 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Peel, core, and roughly chop the apples into small chunks, ensuring they are of similar size for even cooking.
Step 2
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the chopped apples, water, and lemon juice. Stir to coat the apples evenly with the liquid.
Step 3
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Cover the pan with a lid but leave it slightly ajar to allow steam to escape.
Step 4
Cook the apples for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and begin to break down.
Step 5
Add the honey, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract to the pan. Stir well to combine all the ingredients thoroughly.
Step 6
Continue to cook for an additional 10 minutes, uncovered, allowing the compote to thicken and the flavors to meld.
Step 7
Once the compote reaches a desired consistency, remove it from heat and let it cool slightly before serving.
Step 8
Serve the Low Sodium Compote de Pomme warm or at room temperature, as a topping for yogurt, pancakes, or simply enjoy it on its own.
