Healthy Snack: Apple Cider

What you need:

-           10 Apples

-          1 cup sugar

-          4 cinnamon sticks

-          cheesecloth

-          An adult assistant to help you with this recipe

 

 

What you do:

Cut up your apples into large chunks. Place the apple pieces in a large pot and add just enough water to cover them.

Add sugar.

Tie cinnamon sticks into a bundle with a piece of string and add them to apples and water.

Have your adult assistant bring the water to a boil and boil on high heat, uncovered, for one hour, stirring frequently.

Reduce heat and cover. Let simmer for two hours.

Allow mixture to cool and remove cinnamon sticks. Pour cider through a sieve into a large bowl. Wrap the remaining pulp from the sieve in a large piece of cheese cloth and squeeze over your bowl to get out any excess cider. Discard the pulp.

Cider can be stored in the fridge for up to a week and is delicious served cold or warm.

    A whole cup of sugar? Doesn’t sound healthy to me. Would rather have a nice crisp apple.

    Sounds very tasty, but eating whole apples are a lot healthier. Apples with skins and not with caramel.
