Ingredients
- 4 apples peeled, cored and chopped into 1-inch pieces
- ½ cup unsweetened apple juice
- 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon optional
Instructions
- Combine apples, apple juice, and sugar in a medium size saucepan. (If using cinnamon, add now)
- Cover and simmer over medium-low heat for 15-20 minutes or until the apples are soft and start to break down.
- Transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor and blend until it reaches the desired consistency (or use an immersion blender).
- Enjoy applesauce warm or refrigerate it and serve cold.
Notes
- Store applesauce in refrigerator, in an airtight container, for up to 1 week. Mixture will thicken upon chilling.
- Freeze the applesauce in an airtight container, like a freezer bag, for up to 6 months.
- Apples: best choice are McIntosh, Honeycrisp, and Gala.
- For a thicker applsauce, place the sauce in a fine-mesh sieve and allow liquids to pass through. If you prefer a chunkier sauce, opt for a potato masher after cooking the apples. Do not blend.
- Other spices that could be added to the sauce: Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Allspice, Pumpkin Pie Spice.
