Correct spelling, explanation: this form is the correct one because the word amend comes from Middle English amenden, and earlier French amender, both spelled with one m. There was no need to add another m, so amend is the correct form, and ammend is incorrect.
Definition of amend:
verb, to rephrase, add something or change it; usually about law
