  • 2 large apples such as Granny Smith, peeled, cored, and diced
  • 1/2 large yellow onion peeled and finely diced

    Directions

  2. Heat the mixture over medium-high heat until boiling, stirring occasionally.
  3. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for about 5 minutes until the mixture becomes syrupy.
