Chutney is an Indian spread in many forms, including tomato, strawberry, plum, and apple chutney. Apple Chutney happens to be one of the most popular types of chutney, and with good reason. The robust combination of sweet and savory flavors is simply irresistible. Best of all, apple chutney is super easy to make and does not contain tons of sugar like traditional store-bought chutney. Instead, it's made with olive oil, onions, Granny Smith apples, golden raisins, apple cider vinegar, honey, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and allspice, which are all paleo-friendly. In addition to this, due to the apple cider vinegar, the apple chutney will last in the fridge for a few weeks. All in all, apple chutney is sweet yet tart and is the perfect way to liven up any dish.
