The Best Homemade Applesauce image

After tasting the pure apple flavor of this homemade sauce, you just might never go back to the store-bought kind. Supermarket applesauce can be loaded with added sweeteners and flavorings. We use only a little sugar, plus lemon juice, salt and cinnamon, providing a balanced flavor and the perfect amount of sweetness.

4 pounds assorted apples, such as Golden Delicious, Gala, Honeycrisp or McIntosh (about 8), peeled, cored and chopped
1/4 cup sugar
Kosher salt
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Combine the apples, sugar, 1 cup water and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large pot. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook until the apples are very soft, 18 to 20 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Use a mix of sweet and tart apples for the best flavor. Some good options include Honeycrisp, Pink Lady, and Granny Smith apples.
  • Peel and core the apples: This is the most time-consuming part of making applesauce, but it's worth it to get the best texture. You can use a vegetable peeler or an apple corer to make this task easier.
  • Use fresh lemon juice: Lemon juice helps to brighten the flavor of the applesauce and prevent it from turning brown.
  • Add spices to taste: Cinnamon and nutmeg are classic spices for applesauce, but you can also add other spices, such as ginger, cloves, or allspice.
  • Simmer the applesauce until it reaches your desired consistency: The longer you simmer the applesauce, the thicker it will become. If you want a smooth applesauce, you can puree it with an immersion blender or a food processor.
