I can’t tell a lie. This post has been sitting here in drafts for a whole long year. Yes, I created this a year ago and somehow things got busy around here, what with adventure outside posts and Halloween posts, that I somehow missed sharing this most amazingly perfect autumn sipper. Does it get better than a fresh mulled apple cider recipe?
Soluble and insoluble fibre, which aids digestion, blood sugar balance and cardiovascular health. One particular type of soluble fibre in apples, called pectin, also has great binding properties in gluten-free baking!
Given that it is apple season, we’re really into autumn all Canadian-style and part of that means a whole lot of apples (and toque wearing).
I’ve snuck in a few ingredients here you may not have thought to include in apple cider, like the hormone/adaptogenic root maca and anti-inflammatory turmeric.
It’s delicious – and your kitchen will smell incredible. I hope you’re ready to give this easy apple cider recipe a try.

This apple cider recipe is definitely worth mulling up.
Ingredients
Scale
8 apples, cored and each cut into 8

2 Tbsp coconut sugar or sweetener of choice
1 Tbsp coriander seeds
1 tsp ground nutmeg
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp maca
Water to cover
Instructions
Place all ingredients in a medium size pot and pour in enough water just to cover the apples.
Bring to a boil and then reduce to simmer for 90 minutes.
Allow to cool slightly and remove cinnamon sticks.
Using a potato masher or fork, mush the apples and then pour full mix through a strainer or nut sack to remove the pulp and apple skins.
Serve piping hot!

And what about the pulp? I threw mine into a blender and whipped it smooth and used it in place of apple sauce in a most amazing Apple Gingerbread Cake.
