Apple Sauce
There’s apple sauce, and then there’s APPLE SAUCE, as in fresh homemade apple sauce made from a local orchard, or your own backyard.
We have an old apple tree and every year we make apple sauce. It’s definitely not just for kids.
Try your own creative variations, but if you’re apples are amazing, the simpler the better.
1. Combine apples, optional peaches and water in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer.
2. Cover and cook, stirring once or twice, until the apples are very soft and falling apart, about 30 minutes.
3. Mash the apples to the desired consistency and stir in maple syrup and cinnamon, vanilla
Refrigerate for up to 2 weeks or freeze for up to 6 months.
