STRAWBERRY APPLESAUCE



Strawberry Applesauce image

We live in the North Georgia Mountains. In the fall this area produces a lot of apples, and we make full use of this wonderful fruit in many ways. This is on of our favorite uses for the apples, and it can be made with sugar free ingredients if you like

Provided by Tina Brown

Categories     Fruit Sauces

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 4

8 apples any kind you like about 4 lbs.
1/2 c apple juice
2 Tbsp butter or margarine
1/2 c strawberry preserves

Steps:

  • 1. Peel, half and core apples. Cut into chunks. Place in a 5 quart saucepan with apple juice and butter or margarine. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium and simmer, covered, 15 minutes or until apples are tender. Crush apples with a potato masher until chunky. Stir in preserves. Serve warm or chilled. I like to serve it with a dollop of cool whip or yogurt. And I try other flavor preserves as well.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe strawberries: The riper the strawberries, the sweeter and more flavorful the applesauce will be.
  • Use a variety of apples: Different types of apples will give the applesauce different flavors and textures. For example, Granny Smith apples are tart and crisp, while Honeycrisp apples are sweet and juicy.
  • Peel and core the apples: This will help to remove the tough skin and seeds from the apples, making the applesauce smoother.
  • Cook the apples and strawberries slowly: This will help to preserve their flavor and nutrients.
  • Add spices and herbs to taste: Cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger are all popular spices that can be added to applesauce. You can also add fresh herbs, such as mint or basil.
  • Sweeten the applesauce to taste: You can use sugar, honey, or maple syrup to sweeten the applesauce. If you are using a tart variety of apples, you may need to add more sweetener.

Conclusion:

Strawberry applesauce is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is a great way to use up fresh strawberries and apples, and it is also a healthy and nutritious snack. With so many different ways to make strawberry applesauce, you are sure to find a recipe that you love.
