Additional Information:

I made this today :-) I reduced the sugar from 70g in the recipe to 60g and Daddy FECS said it was sweet enough. Farfar loved it so much, he ate 4-5 portions at one go. All of a sudden, he was so energetic. He has recovered so much since June. Praise the Lord. Farmor ate 3 bowls. C ate 3 bowls or so. Daddy FECS ate 2 bowls. or so J ate 1 bowl.

Peel the apples (but don't throw away the apple skin - use them to make apple chips)

Cut the apples into cubes.

In a medium size pot, add 200ml of water.

Add 60g sugar.

Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla.

Stir and slowly bring to bowl. Once bowl, turn down heat and simmer under low heat (no. 3.5 on my stove) for 1 hour or until the apples are cooked and reached the consistency you desire. Adjust with a bit more water if needed,

Now it is done :-)

Eat it with Danish ymer, which is a little like yogurt.

Don't throw away the apple peel, they are the most nutritious part of the apples. Turn them into apple chips :-)

Bake for 1 hour or until dry at 100 degree Celsius

Done :-)
