1 1/4 cups toasted walnuts
1 pound apples (about 3 small apples), peeled, cored, and cut into large chunks
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1/4 cup kosher sweet wine, such as Manischewitz
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Matzo, for serving
Place the walnuts in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a blade attachment and pulse until finely chopped but not a paste, about 20 (1-second) pulses. Transfer to a medium bowl.
Place the apples and lemon juice in the food processor and pulse until the apples are finely chopped, about 25 (1-second) pulses. Transfer to the bowl with the walnuts.
Add the wine and cinnamon to the apple-walnut mixture and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Let the charoset sit until the flavors meld, at least 30 minutes. Serve with matzo.
