Radhika sent this versatile recipe to go pancakes. I love it. Apples and cinnamon are sweet and don't need much sugar. If I have nothing in the house and am craving dessert ( a little more than curd and sugar) then stewed apples or apple sauce are a great option. It makes a wonderful accompaniment with pancake, toast, waffles and plain vanilla cake. Slurp.
It's ridiculously simple to make, keeps well in the fridge and can be eaten with either pancakes and waffles or on toast, ice cream, pakoras....anything that needs a dash of tarty sweetness. Once again my recipe is a mix of recipes from the internet (www.allrecipes.com) and what I have at home... here is what I usually go with:

Once again my recipe is a mix of recipes from the internet (www.allrecipes.com) and what I have at home... here is what I usually go with:
2 sweet apples (I prefer apple sauce that's more sweet than tart)
A little sugar
Cinnamon powder (or cinnamon sticks)
A little lemon if you want the applesauce to be tart
Boil/stew/bake the apples. If lightly stewing then
add the sugar and cinnamon powder while stewing it, else you can add it
later....remove skin, seeds and core, mash up using a fork or in a
grinder...add the sugar, cinnamon power and lemon juice to taste.
Some variations: nutmeg, chilies (for spiciness)
If you want an easy home substitute for apple pie, then crush some marie biscuits, make a crust at the bottom of a flat vessel, cool the apple sauce and put it on top. Eat it soon, otherwise it can get soggy.
Make your own variation and write to me.
