Start by preparing the apples. Peel, core, and dice the apples into small chunks.

In a large pot, combine the diced apples, lemon juice, and water.
Step 3
Place the pot over medium heat and bring to a gentle simmer. Cover the pot with a lid.

Add the ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and ground nutmeg to the pot. Stir well to combine evenly with the apples.
Step 6
Use a potato masher or a fork to mash the apples to your preferred texture, leaving some chunks if desired for a more rustic compote.
