Homemade Cinnamon Applesauce
Why oh why did it take me SO long to make homemade applesauce? I can’t believe how utterly simple it is to make and how happy it made my children. I cooked the apples for a little longer to ensure the applesauce would be very smooth when I blended it. This cinnamon applesauce had a nice sweet/tart flavor with a touch of cinnamon and the texture was smooth and creamy. Both of my kids LOVED it and said they didn’t want store-bought applesauce again. After trying a bite, I don’t blame them! It was delicious.
How to Make Homemade Cinnamon Applesauce
Peel and dice the apples and place them into the saucepan.
Add the apple juice, brown sugar, and cinnamon to the apples then stir to mix thoroughly. Cook the apples over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 30-35 minutes.
Remove from the heat and blend with an immersion blender until smooth and creamy. Taste and add more sugar, if needed. Serve warm or cold. Enjoy.
I have never made sweet apple sauce before. This must have been delicious Pam 🙂
Pam I love home applesauce.
Only I made one time.
I will try your recipe look delicious 🙂
I made some applesauce this weekend too. Ain’t homemade the best?
I love applesauce. I used to make it with apples from our trees when the kids were younger and would gather basket upon basket of apples. Sometimes I”ll leave the skin on a couple to turn the applesauce pink, and it looks really interesting.
I love making applesauce. If you don’t have a rice cooker/steamer get one! I bought my Sunbeam at GoodWill for $5, it’s my best friend. I love the fresh flavor of steamed vegetables, and I can hard boil eggs in 20 minutes. Steel cut oats in an hour. Applesauce in 20 minutes. White rice 20 minutes, brown rice in 50 minutes.
Perfect time of year for making this recipe with apples being in season. Looks so appetizing.
Apples & cinnamon are such a great combo!
We made applesauce in the slow cooker the other day and all loved it.
you definitely achieved ultimate smoothness! fantastic applesauce, i can tell even from way over here. 🙂
Made your applesauce. Quick and delicious. I had some apples in my fruit drawer in the fridge and used those. Came out fantastic. I didn’t have any lemons so I left it out and the applesauce was still great. I will make this again. It’s a quick way to use up leftover apples.
