HOMEMADE APPLE SPREAD

Steps:

• In a large stock pot, boil apples in about 6 cups of water. Boil on medium high without the lid for 20 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent apples from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
• When the water level starts to boil down and the apples have just enough water to even out, add the sugar and cinnamon. Stir and boil for another 20 minutes.
• The apples should darken and caramelize in texture. Using a potato masher, mash in the apples to preferred consistency.
• Turn off the burner and allow the apples to cool for a while. Once they have cooled, you can store them in air tight containers and use it as a topping for ice cream, cakes, on toast, or even with fresh yogurt. They will stay fresh for about a week in the refrigerator or can be stored longer in the freezer.

JOEY'S APPLE CAKE RECIPE

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugars, cinnamon, baking soda, nutmeg, and salt. In a separate bowl, combine melted butter, oil, eggs, and extract. Stir wet ingredients into dry ingredients until just combined. Fold in apples and pecans. Spoon batter into a greased and floured bundt pan and bake in a 325F oven for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean. Cool in pan for approximately 15 minutes, unmold and cool on rack. To make caramel sauce, melt butter and sugar over medium heat stirring for about 5 minutes until the sugar is dissolved. Add the cream, stirring as you bring to a boil. Simmer until the mixture is slightly reduced and thickened, about 10 minutes. Slice cake and serve with warm caramel sauce and vanilla ice cream.
