Ingredients

Scale
  • 6-8 medium apples (Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, Gala)
  • 1/2 – 3/4 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup water

Instructions

  • Peel, core, and slice the apples into about 1/4-inch thick slices.
  • In a large bowl, combine the apple slices, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Toss to coat evenly.
  • Transfer the apple mixture to a heavy-bottomed saucepan.
  • Add the water and butter to the saucepan.
  • Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender but still hold their shape and the sauce has thickened, about 25-30 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and let cool slightly before using in your pie.
