Homemade Cinnamon Applesauce
A seasonal favorite! Plus, there's no added sugar, will make your house smell amazing and tastes delicious :)
Servings 10 cups
Ingredients
- 8-10 small to medium apples
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp cloves
Instructions
- Peel all apples and dice into cubes, removing the core (I like keeping the skin on about half of them and peeling the rest).
- Add to a large pot with lemon, water and spices. Turn heat on medium, cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and let cook for 20-40 minutes.
- Once apples are soft, use a potato masher or an immersion blender to mash the apples. If you prefer applesauce on the chunky side, I wouldn't use the immersion blender. However, if you like it smooth, I would definitely recommend!
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
