Homemade Applesauce image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 40m

Yield about 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 pounds assorted apples (such as Golden Delicious, Gala, Honeycrisp or McIntosh; about 4), peeled and chopped
Up to 2 tablespoons sugar
Lemon juice, to taste

Steps:

  • Combine the apples, sugar and 1/2 cup water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat to medium; cover and cook until the apples are very soft and most of the liquid has evaporated, about 20 minutes (or microwave in a large microwave-safe bowl, covered, about 10 minutes).
  • Add lemon juice to taste to the applesauce, then transfer to a blender or food processor and puree (or puree in the pan with an immersion blender).
  • Transfer the applesauce to a bowl and refrigerate until cool.
  • Fun Flavors
  • Apricot: Stir in 1/4 cup apricot jam.
  • Raspberry: Add 1 cup raspberries while the applesauce is still warm; mash slightly.
  • Cranberry-Spice: Add 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon and 1/2 cup dried cranberries while the applesauce is still warm.

This applesauce is a great way to use up extra apples. I made a double batch and froze half of it for later.

I'm allergic to cinnamon, so I omitted it from the recipe. The applesauce still turned out great! I could really taste the nutmeg and cloves.

This applesauce is a great way to use up leftover apples. I always have a few apples that are starting to go bad, and this is a great way to use them up before they go to waste.

I made this applesauce in my slow cooker and it turned out great! It was so easy to make and I didn't have to babysit it. I'll definitely be making it this way again.

I love that this recipe doesn't require any added sugar. The natural sweetness of the apples is enough to make it delicious.

This applesauce is the perfect consistency. It's not too thick and not too runny. It's perfect for spreading on toast or using as a dip for fruit.
