Experience the wonderful flavors and smells of Fall in your home by making this flavorful, no sugar added Stovetop Applesauce. It’s like potpourri you can eat!
INSTRUCTIONS STEP 1: PEEL, SLICE AND CORE APPLESStart by slicing your apples all about the same thickness. Using a tool like a “apple-peeler-corer-slicer” is a major time saver.
STEP 2: ADD WATER OR APPLE JUICE TO POTThen you’ll add about ¼ – ½ cups of water to the pot. If you happen to have apple juice around, this makes a wonderful substitute for water.
STEP 3: ADD SPICESWe love to throw in a few full cinnamon sticks to the pot to infuse the flavor to the max! I even added a couple of pieces of whole Allspice.
STEP 4: LET APPLES SIMMER UNTIL FORK TENDERThis is where the magic happens! Bring the apples to a slow simmer and stir occasionally. They will reduce in size and release their juices.
