Easy Homemade Applesauce
I bought a bag of apples for snacking, but it turns out they weren’t as crisp and sweet as I like them – so, they became applesauce! Stir a couple spoonfuls into your oatmeal or smoothie, or use it as an egg replacer next time you bake a cake. Or just eat it by the spoonful!
Ingredients
- 4 medium apples (about 480 g)
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 pinch salt
Directions
- Peel, core and chop the apples into chunks.
- Place all the ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat.
- Simmer for about 30 minutes until the apples are soft.
- Cool before blending (in a jug blender or with an immersion blender) – or leave it chunky!
- Store in a jar in the fridge.
