Yield Makes 5 cups

Number Of Ingredients 4

8 Red Delicious apples (about 4 pounds), peeled and chopped into 1-inch pieces
2/3 cup sugar
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (from 2 lemons)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Place apples, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and 1/2 cup water in a large saucepan, and cook over medium heat until very tender, stirring often so that apples do not scorch, about 45 minutes. If necessary, add additional water to apple mixture, up to 1 cup, while apples cook.
  • Remove the mixture from heat. Using a potato masher, mash into sauce, leaving some of the chunks. Let cool. If making ahead of time, chill, covered, until ready to use. Allow to warm to room temperature before serving.

Time 2h15m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

8 apples, granny smiths are good
3/4 cup red cinnamon candies
1/2 cup sugar substitute, such as equal
3/4 cup water

Steps:

  • Core the apples, but it isn't necessary to peel them.
  • I like the texture of having the peels in the sauce.
  • Dice them very fine.
  • Tumble everything into a large pot and bring to a boil.
  • Reduce to the slowest simmer you can arrange on your stove so the sauce won't burn on the bottom of the pot.
  • Cover, stirring occasionally, until you reach the consistency you want.
  • The longer, the finer texture.
  • I usually cook it about 3 hours.

Tips:

  • Prep Work: Before starting, ensure your kitchen is well-prepared. Gather all ingredients, measuring cups and spoons, a medium saucepan, a mixing bowl, a whisk, a spatula, and a mold or individual serving dishes.
  • Quality Ingredients: Use fresh and ripe apples for the best flavor. Select a variety that holds its shape well during cooking, such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp.
  • Sugar Adjustments: The amount of sugar can be adjusted to your preference. If you prefer a sweeter applesauce, add more sugar while cooking. Conversely, if you prefer a tangy flavor, reduce the sugar.
  • Cooking Time: Keep an eye on the applesauce as it simmers. The cooking time may vary depending on the type of apples and the desired consistency. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
  • Gelatin Mixture: When working with gelatin, follow the instructions on the package. Different brands may have slightly different techniques. Ensure the gelatin is completely dissolved before adding it to the applesauce.
  • Chilling Time: Allow the applesauce mold to chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight. This will help it set properly and develop a firm texture.
  • Serving Suggestions: Serve the red hot applesauce mold chilled, garnished with whipped cream, cinnamon sugar, or chopped nuts. You can also serve it with vanilla ice cream or as a side dish with roasted pork or chicken.
