Ingredients
- 9 medium apples a mix of Granny Smith, Honey Crisp, and Pink Lady is my favorite
- 3/4 cup apple juice apple cider, or water
- 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar optional
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon optional
Instructions
- Peel and quarter apples, removing the seeds and cores.
- Add juice (or your preferred liquid) to the instant pot along with the apples and toss to combine.
- Secure the lid in place and cook on high pressure for 4 minutes.
- Allow the Instant Pot to do a natural release for 5 minutes, then cover the steam valve with a towel and do a controlled quick release.
- Mash the apples with a potato masher for chunkier applesauce or blend in a blender with the lid set askew so the steam can vent.
- Taste, then stir in sugar and cinnamon, as needed.
