Instructions
  1. Place cut up apples, juice, cinnamon, and salt in a pot. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer covered until apples are tender and the liquid has cooked off, about 15 minutes. *You can also make this in a pressure cooker. Follow the directions above but after the cooker comes up to pressure, set the timer for 5 minutes.
  2. Taste the sauce. If you feel it needs to be sweeter, add a teaspoon or two of maple syrup and reheat, stirring constantly, until it dissolves. Remove cinnamon stick, puree in the blender or mash with a potato masher, depending on whether you want a smooth or chunky consistency.
