Chai -Spiced Stewed Apple recipe

Peel, core and chop the apples.

In a saucepan, put in the apples, sugar, water and chai spice. Let it boil for atleast 10- 15 minutes on a medium flame and then another additional 5-10mins on a low flame until the liquid has evaporated and you get a slight thick sauce.

Make sure the apples are soft and mushy at this point.

The leftover sauce can also be used and is healthy. Eat it plain by itself or with your oatmeal or oats.

You can use 3 tablespoons of ginger powder, 3 tablespoons of cinnamon powder, 1 1/2 teaspoons of cloves powder, 2 tablespoons of black pepper powder, 2 tablespoons of cardamom powder, 2 tablespoons of fennel powder, 1/2 tablespoon of star anise powder, and 1/2 tablespoon of nutmeg powder to make the chai spice.
Chai spice can be used to make masala chai and to add a chai-spiced flavour to various dishes. You can also use this spice mix to make a coffee or latte.
This spice mix, if stored properly, can remain fresh and fragrant for months.
The apples can be stewed and bottled up for future use.
You can use the stewed apples to make an apple pie filling, ice cream, dessert topping, jam, applesauce for cakes, etc.
