Simple Home Style Applesauce

Great for adding to baked goods, a treat, a side dish or a topping.
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Wash, cut and core (peel if desired) your apples. Small cubes or strips are best.
- 2
Place apple chunks in large pot over medium heat with a lid. Add water to just cover the bottom. Cook for 20 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally. Replace water as needed.
- 3
Add cinnamon and sugar to taste depending on the apples you used.
- 4
(Freeze) Store in freezer bags and remove remaining air. You can also freeze in a sterilized icecube tray for easy 1/2 to 1 oz portions for babies and toddlers. Can be stored in a deep freeze for up to six months. Thaw out overnight in the fridge. Or store in fridge after preparing without freezing in an old applesauce jar.

*Health Hint* Substitute sugar with honey, stevia or your favorite sweetener or leave plain.

+Taste Replace+ Instead of apples, try pears, peaches or plums. Skin, pit, core etc. Steam them the same until soft. Try mixing two or more together or add berries to sweeten.

This applesauce is the applesauce I grew up on. Every fall our family would go apple picking. We came home with tons of apples and this applesauce was a favorite . It's ultra smooth and silky, sweet and tart as no sugar or sweetner is added. Of course you can add sweetner if you like. A blend of tart and sweet apples works best and having some red apples gives a beautiful pimk color to the applesauce. fenway -

Applesauce Applesauce
Just whipped this together at a buddies house, turned out really good. We added a bag of frozen strawberries and bananas to our's while it was cooking down and that was really delicious. After we were finished we had the idea to use some Fireball cinnamon whiskey in place of some of the water which would also probably be delicious! AndrewLorenz -
