Peel the apple and chop into 1/2-inch cubes. Place the apple into a saucepan along with the 1/8 cup agave nectar, water, cinnamon, and ginger.

In a large measuring cup or small bowl, mix together the water, orange juice, 1/2 cup agave nectar, cider vinegar, and vanilla.

Bake for 30-40 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes before removing from pan.
