Prepare the Apples: Start by dicing your apples into small, even pieces for consistent cooking.
Cook the Apples: Combine Ingredients: In a medium-sized saucepan over medium-high heat, add the diced apples, lemon juice, and water.
Cook Until Softened: Once the apples begin to soften and change color (about 5 minutes), add in the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon.
Caramelize: Allow the mixture to cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. The sugar will begin to caramelize, creating a delicious sauce.
