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.

Try these stewed apples over oatmeal, yogurt, toast, or by themselves.
4–5 apples, peeled, cored, and sliced (Honeycrisp, Fuji, or Gala work well)
3–4 tbsp coconut sugar (start with 3, add more to taste)
½ cup water or apple juice
1 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp vanilla extract
Pinch of sea salt
Add apples, coconut sugar, water (or juice), cinnamon, and salt to a saucepan.
Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 12–18 minutes, stirring occasionally, until apples are tender.
Remove from heat and stir in vanilla.
Mash slightly for a chunky sauce or leave slices whole.
