Notes

Make sure you chop all the apples in similar sizes. This makes sure that they all cook evenly.
You can swap the cinnamon for nutmeg or ground ginger, or use a mixture of all three.
Add some extra crunch by sprinkling them with crushed pecans.
If the saucepan starts to dry out, you can always add a little more water.
Take these stewed apples to the next level with a drizzle of caramel sauce before serving.
You can swap half the apples for pears for something a little different.
If you don't want a strong cinnamon flavour (which we personally love), then you could add a cinnamon stick to the apples and just take it out before serving.
Vanilla is also a delicious addition. Just a little vanilla extract or vanilla paste goes a long way.
