Peel apples into chunks, making sure to get all the peel off from the edges
7 large Granny smith green apples
Chop apples into bite sized chunks, about 2cm x 2 cm or ½ inch squares
Add chopped apples to large pot on stove on low to medium heat, along with all other ingredients. (don't use a lid on the pan)
1 tablespoon Monkfruit Sweetener (White), 1 tablespoon Tap water, 1 tablespoon Lime juice, ½ teaspoon Mixed spice, ½ teaspoon Cinnamon, ½ teaspoon Ground Cloves
Cook for 10 - 15 mins until apples become tender, stirring every couple of minutes to ensure apples cook evenly through. (If the pot dries out too fast before the apples become tender, add a bit more water)
Notes
Apples: Granny smith apples are a tart green apple commonly sold in supermarkets in Australia. Other apples that would work just a s well are Baldwin, Cameo, Cortland, Idared. These are all varieties of tart and crisp apples that hold thier shape well during cooking and baking.
Monkfruit: I used classic white monkfruit sweetener which is a sgranulated sweetener that measures like sugar. Granulated stevia or any other granulated sweetener that measures like sugar could also be used.
Spices: any spice combination may be used, ginger is also another popular option.
Storage: Store apples in an air tight container in the fridge for 3 or 4 days.
Serving: Serve with sugar free custard, or sugar free ice cream.
