Making Homemade Applesauce Its Easy

Making homemade apple sauce is much easier than I thought it would be, my kids and I did this in no time and it was fun. It took a total of an hour for the whole process this includes the prep time of peeling and coring. Once I did my first batch I was amazed and said to my kids we are making homemade applesauce always.


We bought red delicious apples and washed them, I used a total of (10) ten apples to start.


Peel the apples and core them

Once you have done this you can cut them up into slices and get them ready to put them in a pot to simmer.

Place the apples in a big enough pot that can hold them at this point you can add a cup of water or c a cup of organic apple juice to the pot with the apples. Add a little bit of lemon juice not a lot you can add half  of a small fresh lemon. 

I used filtered water for this batch

Just stir in all the ingredients and add half a cup of brown sugar or less, to be honest I only added about 3 tablespoons. You can also add a little bit of cinnamon this is all up to you if you would like to add a dash of cinnamon, I did to this batch of applesauce but I only added just a pinch or so. Also you can omit the brown sugar it will still be very sweet

Here you can see how the apples looked cooked down, sometimes you may want to put them in a food processor or blender to make it smoother. I choose to leave them as is as they were really soft and had very little lumps.

Once all the apple were cooked down you can go ahead and place them in your mason jars. I have to be honest these were the first time I made homemade applesauce and I plan to do them again and again they were so sweet.and I didn't add a lot of sugar I am trying to cut down. You can even omit the brown sugar if you wish I added it for taste and look. So go ahead and try out this easy applesauce recipe and share your how it went.
This applesauce is so easy and so yummy this batch yielded one and a half medium sized mason jars. This will stay fresh in your fridge for a while if your lucky that its not gone by the end of the day.
