A Shaker recipe in Cooking Light's 10/08 issue. The origianl recipe calls for Baldwin apples which are hard to find, C.L.'s recipe uses Pink Lady apples. I can't find those so I used Winesap apples with great results. Ingredients:
5 1/2 cups apples, chopped & peeled (approximately 4) |
1/2 cup water |
1/4 cup sugar |
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice |
1 cinnamon stick |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 dash almond extract |
Directions:
1. Combine the first 5 ingredients in large saucepan.
2. Bring to a boil.
3. Cover and reduce heat. Simmer for 35 minutes until soft.
4. Discard cinnamon stick.
5. Using a potato masher, mash to desired consistency.
6. Stir in salt and almond extract.
