Applemoes (Dutch Applesauce)

Applemoes is a traditional Dutch applesauce made by simmering peeled apple chunks with lemon juice, sugar, cinnamon stick, and water until soft. The apples are cooked down to a chunky or smooth texture as preferred, resulting in a sweet, gently spiced sauce. Its warm spice and natural sweetness make it a versatile accompaniment for meals or a simple dessert.

  1. Peel the apples and chop them into chunks. Sprinkle them with some lemon juice to prevent the browning and put them in big pot.
  2. Add a few cups of water depending on your size pot. Basically, put the apples in a few centimeters of water.
  3. Cover and simmer the apples until they become fully cooked, occasionally sprinkling sugar over them.
  4. Leave it chunky or smash it slightly to create a finer texture. Taste and adjust the sweetness or the flavor of cinnamon as preferred.
