Notes
It's important to keep the peel on the apples so that your compote has a nice pink color. However, if you don't blend enough, you risk getting bits of peel in your compote. I don't mind this, but if you want to avoid it, you can strain the apples to remove the skins.
If you prefer a "yellow" compote. Remove the skin before cooking the apples.
