Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Plain Greek Yogurt
- 4 medium Apples
- 120 milliliters Water
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 30 grams Chopped Nuts (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Peel, core, and dice the apples into small cubes.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the diced apples, water, honey, lemon juice, and the salt.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 20 minutes, or until the apples are very soft, stirring occasionally.
Once the apples are soft, use a potato masher or a fork to mash them into a smooth applesauce. For a smoother consistency, consider using an immersion blender.
Remove the applesauce from the heat and stir in the cinnamon. Allow it to cool slightly.
Divide the Greek yogurt evenly among 4 serving bowls.
Top the yogurt with a generous scoop of the homemade applesauce.
Sprinkle with chopped nuts for an extra crunch if desired.
Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
