Place apples in large saucepan. Add water, salt, and cinnamon (if using).
Cover and cook over medium heat until apples are soft and broken down, 20 to 25 minutes. During cooking, use oven mitts to remove lid and use rubber spatula or wooden spoon to stir a few times.
Turn off heat and slide saucepan to cool burner. Uncover and let apples cool for at least 15 minutes.
