the simple details to make apple compote,

The hardest thing for preparing this apple compote dish is peeling, coring and slicing the apples.

The next step is super quick—mix water with tapioca starch, fresh lemon juice, maple syrup, cinnamon and nutmeg. Sometimes I add a pinch of sea salt.

Add the apple slices to the flavoured mixture and gently mix to coat the apples.

Transfer apples into a saucepan and cook over medium heat for about five minutes. Until the apples start to soften, you will need to stir the apples occasionally.

This recipe is wonderful because you can use up those apples that have been sitting in your bowl for days and aren’t that fresh.
