How to Make Space Needle Apple Cinnamon Caramel Sauce

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup apple juice and 2 cups peeled, cored, and diced apples.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the apples have softened and the sauce has thickened to a syrupy consistency. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  3. Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the mixture cool slightly (about 5 minutes).
  4. Gradually whisk in 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, a tablespoon at a time, until fully incorporated and the sauce is smooth.
  5. Stir in 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Taste and adjust cinnamon to your preference.
  6. This sauce is sensitive to extreme temperatures; avoid excessive heat or cold. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
