Last week we harvested apples, tons of them, 2 grocery bags full. Since they are the smaller side, unlike store-bought ones, am sure you can imagine how plentiful there were inside the bags.
I have used kilograms of them to make apple sauces, apple jam, apple pie filling, apple pie, and more.
Vegans call it as honee. While it is thick, it is more to syrup in my opinion. It is nice for pancakes and the like, but I have yet use it in baking tho.
To make this honee is pretty simple, all you need are apple juice and sugar.
Some like adding citrus in theirs, either lime or lemon, and my following recipe used lime juice, but yes you can use lemon or just apple juice and sugar.
The easiest would be using store bought apple juice, but since we harvested apples, we juiced ourselves 🙂
– 12 apples – about 2 c juice
– 1 c sugar
– 1 tsp lime
– Bring to a light boil on high heat, then lower temperature to medium and simmer for 40 minutes. You should get about 1 C honee
– Cool to room temperature, then chill in the fridge
Easy peasy lemon squeezy 😀 Well in this case, limey squeezee 😛
I used the honee mostly for English muffins. Melty vegan margarine and citrusy honee, YUMMO!

Bikin Madu Dari Buah Apel Yuk 😀
Ngomong-ngomong minggu lalu aku panen buah apel. Jadilah semingguan kemarin banyak olahan apel keluar dari dapur ku 😀
Bertoples-toples aku bikin selai apel, saus apel, isian pai apel, pokoknya buanyak deh, sampai kehabisan toples maupun ruang di kulkas hahah
Aku pun bikin sirup buah apel, yang oleh vegan (diet tanpa produk hewani) disebut sebagai MADU
Memang sih tidak mirip dengan madu yang dihasilkan oleh para lebah, namun lumayan lah yah, enak buat dipakai olesan roti, kue apem, dan sejenisnya
Mungkin bedanya, kalau madu ada khasiat untuk kesehatan, sirup apel tentunya hanya untuk menyenangkan lidah wkwkwkw
Untuk buat nih “madu”, mudah banget, dan bahan-bahannya pun ga ribet, hanya jus buah apel dan gula pasir.
Kadang ada yang suka nambahin air jeruk, baik jeruk lemon ataupun nipis. Tapi tanpa jerukpun enak kok.
– 12 buah apel ukuran kecil, parut hingga menjadi 2 gelas jus apel yak (buang busanya – bisa pakai saringan)
– 1 gelas gula pasir
– 1 sdt jeruk nipis
– Rebus di api besar, terus turunkan ke api sedang, dan masak selama 40 menit. Sisa akhir akan menjadi 1 gelas “madu” dan diamkan suhu ruangan dulu sebelum dimasukkan ke kulkas.
Kalau sudah dingin, akan mengental seperti madu 😀
Jadi deh dan gampang banget kan 😀
Rasanya tuh kecut-kecut manis. Kalau teman mau hanya manis, ga usah pakai jeruk yak 😀
