Instructions
Peel, core, and cut apples into hearty chunks (about 8 pieces).
Place apples, cider, cinnamon and lemon peel into a medium to large heavy bottom pot. Turn heat to high and bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat and simmer for 25-35 minutes, stirring occasionally to help break down the apples.
Shut off the heat and use the back of a wooden spoon to break down apples to desired consistency. Store in airtight containers in the fridge.
Enjoy!
