By: Barb Biagioli

Easy Homemade Applesauce Recipe

Prep Time: 5 minutes | Cook Time: 15 minutes | Total Time: 20 minutes | Servings: 4 – 6

INGREDIENTS

  • 8 small apples, washed and diced (no peeling)

  • 1 tbsp maple syrup

  • 1 tsp cinnamon

  • ¼ cup water

INSTRUCTIONS

 1.     In a medium saucepan, add the water, maple syrup and apples. Bring to a simmer and cover with a lid on low for 5 minutes. Check the apples, give them a stir to make sure they aren’t sticking to the bottom.

 2.     On low, continue to cook the apples down until they are soft, another 5-10 minutes.

 3.     Add the apples to a high-speed blender with the cinnamon. Blend on high until completely emulsified. This will blend all the skins up – you shouldn’t have any chunks or remaining skins. Pour into a glass container.

 4.     Set aside and let cool. Enjoy over hot oatmeal or by the spoonful!
