Homemade Applesauce (No Sugar)

Introducing a delightful and healthful twist to your snack time - our Homemade Applesauce with a no-sugar recipe. This applesauce is a perfect symphony of natural sweetness from Honeycrisp apples, a hint of cinnamon warmth, and a dash of lemon juice for that subtle zesty kick. This homemade applesauce not only makes a wholesome snack but also serves as a fantastic accompaniment to your breakfast dishes like oatmeal and yogurt. Plus, it's a great way to utilize those extra apples during apple picking season!

Serves 4

Ingredients

Cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon
Lemon juice
1 tablespoon
Water
1/2 cup
Honeycrisp apples
4, cored and diced (leave the peels on for more fiber)

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine the diced Honeycrisp apples, water, and cinnamon.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.
  3. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the apples are soft and tender.
  4. Remove the saucepan from the heat. Allow it to cool slightly.
  5. Using an immersion blender or a food processor, blend the apple mixture until it reaches your desired consistency. If you prefer a chunkier applesauce, blend it less.
  6. Stir in the lemon juice, adjusting the amount to your taste.
  7. Serve the applesauce warm or chilled as per your preference. It pairs well with oatmeal, yogurt, or can be enjoyed on its own!

Tips

  • 💡 For a spicier kick, add a pinch of nutmeg or clove.
  • 💡 This applesauce can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
  • 💡 If you prefer a sweeter taste, use a mix of Honeycrisp and Golden Delicious apples.
