Apple chutney is often used as a condiment or relish to accompany savory dishes, such as cheese plates, roasted meats, or sandwiches, and it can add a burst of flavor and complexity to the dish.
Combine the diced apples, chopped onion, orange peel, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, grated ginger, cinnamon, and salt in a large saucepan.
Stir to combine.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a boil, occasionally stirring to dissolve the sugar.
Reduce the heat to low and let the chutney simmer uncovered for about half an hour until the apples are soft.
The mixture has thickened to your desired consistency, occasionally stirring to prevent sticking.
Taste the chutney and adjust the seasoning to your liking, adding more sugar, vinegar, or spices if desired.
Once the chutney has reached your desired consistency and flavor, please remove it from the heat and let it cool to room temperature.
Transfer the cooled chutney to clean, sterilized jars if you plan to store it for later use. Seal the jars with lids and store them in the refrigerator.
Serve the apple chutney as a condiment or relish it with cheese, roasted meats, sandwiches, or other dishes. Enjoy!
