Coconut Sugar Stewed Apples

Coconut Sugar Stewed Apples

This stewed apples recipe is one of those simple staples I come back to again and again — easy to make, naturally sweetened, and very versatile.

Using coconut sugar gives the apples a deeper, almost caramel-like flavor without being overly sweet. They soften into the perfect cozy texture that you can spoon over oatmeal, yogurt, icecream or just by themselves.  I love how customizable this recipe is too — you can keep it classic or switch up the spices depending on the season or your mood.

Coconut Sugar Stewed Apples

Ingredients

  • ½ cup water or apple juice

  • 1 tsp cinnamon

  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

  • Pinch of sea salt

Directions

  1. Add apples, coconut sugar, water (or juice), cinnamon, and salt to a saucepan.

  2. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.

  3. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 12–18 minutes, stirring occasionally, until apples are tender.

  4. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla.

  5. Mash slightly for a chunky sauce or leave slices whole.
