Once cooked, drain the water, remove the cinnamon stick and puree the apples with a hand blender.
Bring the apples back to the heat and add the sugar.
Stir and let it cook over medium heat until the sugar has melted and it leaves streaks on the bottom of the pan.

Let it sit for a while, before serving, remove the parchment paper and enjoy.
