Peel apples, and dice in bite-sized pieces or cut into slices.
5 apples
In a pot fitted with a metal steamer basket, add ~1 inch of water.
Add the apples to the steamer basket and place a lid over the pan.
Steam the apples on medium until the apples are able to be pierced easily with a knife (about 4-5 minutes).
Drain, place in a small bowl, and toss with the cinnamon.
1 tsp ground cinnamon
Notes
Five minutes of steaming works for our preferences for texture, but if you prefer a firmer apple, check at three minutes.Cool completely before freezing.
