Recipe for homemade and natural apple compote

The orange peel can be used in ribbons or pieces, in the same way that it is peeled off with the help of the peeler. Once the orange is peeled, we will reserve your skin.

We will also take care of the apples . We will leave them already peeled and we will remove the center with the seeds and the heart. We will also leave them cut into pieces (it does not matter if they are not uniform or that they are not well cut). Do not throw the skin of the apples because according to the taste of each one, we can incorporate a part to this recipe. I usually do it because this gives more taste to the compote and more fiber content.

Next, heat a pan with 350 milliliters of water, sugar, lemon juice and orange peel.

Let this mixture boil so that it forms a slightly thick liquid, like a kind of syrup or syrup.

We will leave this mixture cooking for about 30 minutes, with the pan ta pada It is important that the fire stays low to prevent the preparation from burning.

After this time, the mixture should have taken a golden color and the pieces of apple should be practically undone. If necessary, we can let the compote cook a little more. If we see the mixture too dry, we can add a little more water.

A once the compote is cooked, we can stir it a bit more with a wooden spoon to uniform the consistency. This is also the right time to try the seasoning of our recipe. If it is not sweet enough, you can add a little more sugar. Otherwise, to remove a bit of sweetness, you can add some water or more lemon, or both. Do not abuse the lemon to avoid falling into the risk that the compote will become acidic. In any case, after making the adjustments, you have to stir everything very well.

In principle, applesauce is not a preparation of totally uniform consistency, but lovers of homogeneous textures can pass the preparation by a blender or robot. If that is the case, you have to remove the orange peel before processing the mixture, and the cinnamon, if it was added in the branch and not in powder.

That's it.In fact, this recipe is a good idea to take apples that are already very ripe.
