Tips:

  • To make the apple sauce even chunkier, use a sharp knife to cut the apples into 1-inch pieces instead of grating them. You can also add a tablespoon of cornstarch to the sauce to thicken it.
  • If you don't have any cinnamon sticks, you can use 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon instead.
  • This apple sauce is also delicious served warm or at room temperature. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
  • For a sweeter apple sauce, add an extra 1/4 cup of sugar or honey. You can also add a pinch of nutmeg or cloves for a more complex flavor.
  • This apple sauce is a great way to use up leftover apples. It can also be used as a filling for pies, tarts, and cakes.
