How To Make Applesauce

How to make applesauce? I have a very simple answer - blend up some tasty apples and serve.

No store-bought brand will compare to fresh raw apple sauce, and I'll walk you through the process of how to make it.

A video guiding you through the process is included in the middle of the article.

How to Make Applesauce

Step One: Get Your Apples

Since you'll be adding no sweeteners, your raw apple sauce will sink or swim depending on the quality of your apples. Tasteless, pasty apples from the store aren't going to cut it. You want the sweetest, most crisp fruit you can find. If possible, go straight to a farmer and get them right off the tree. My favorite variety is Honeycrisp, but use whatever you think tastes great.

Just remember that when it comes to applesauce, sweet trumps sour.

Step Two: Get Your Blender

Apples are not the easiest fruit to puree, and if your blender isn't up to the task you're going to be in trouble.

Most store-bought blenders probably don't have the power required. I highly suggest a Vitamix blender because it never jams and includes a tamper, which is crucial for pushing the fruit into the blades.

Step Three: Chop, Blend, and Enjoy.

Slice the apples into smaller pieces and place them in your blender.Blend on high and use your tamper to press the fruit into the blades for a smooth sauce.

Blend on low use your pulse feature to make it more chunky.

Enjoy!
