THE BEST HOMEMADE APPLESAUCE
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.

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.
- Stir in the lemon juice and cinnamon. Let cool for 5 minutes or so, then transfer the apple mixture to a blender, filling no more than halfway. Remove the center cap from the lid and place it on the blender. Cover the lid with a folded kitchen towel to catch splatters and pulse until smooth. Alternatively, puree in the pan with an immersion blender.
- Transfer the applesauce to a bowl and refrigerate until cool, about 1 hour. Store leftover applesauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
APPLE-PEAR SAUCE
Homemade applesauce is way more delicious than anything out of a jar, and the perk is you can eat it warm-when my family likes it best-and jar any leftovers. Making it from scratch allows you to keep it as chunky as you prefer, or puree it completely. I add pear for juice and sweetness, and just a bit of lemon and cinnamon. The trick is to not overcomplicate it with too many spices and overpower that fresh-picked apple taste. We always double and sometimes triple this batch and make extra to share with friends. Any home with a new baby or someone who is healing will appreciate this nurturing homemade simple treat.

Steps:
- Toss together the apples, pears, 1/4 cup water, maple syrup and 2 teaspoons cinnamon in a large pot with a heavy bottom (a Dutch oven works great for this). Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, over low heat, until the fruit are very tender, about 45 minutes or up to 1 hour. Stir in the lemon juice and use a potato masher to smash to your desired consistency. If you like a completely smooth, pureed sauce, use an immersion blender to blend until smooth. Taste and add additional cinnamon to your liking.
- Serve warm, or cool completely and store in sterile jars with tight-fitting lids up to 1 week in the refrigerator.
Tips:
- Choose the right apples: Use a variety of apples that are good for applesauce, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn. These apples hold their shape well and have a good balance of sweetness and tartness.
- Peel and core the apples: This is an essential step to ensure a smooth applesauce. You can use a vegetable peeler and a coring tool to make this process easier.
- Cook the apples until they are soft: This can be done in a pot on the stovetop or in a slow cooker. Be sure to stir the apples occasionally to prevent them from sticking.
- Add your desired spices and flavors: This is where you can get creative and customize your applesauce. Some popular additions include cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and vanilla extract.
- Sweeten the applesauce to taste: If you like your applesauce sweeter, you can add sugar, honey, or maple syrup. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
Conclusion:
Applesauce is a delicious and versatile food that can be enjoyed in many ways. It can be eaten on its own, used as a topping for pancakes or waffles, or even used as an ingredient in baking recipes. With so many different ways to make applesauce, there is sure to be a recipe that you will love. Experiment with different apple varieties, spices, and flavors to create your own unique applesauce.
