Flavored Applesauce Recipes

Steps:

• Throw the apples, apple juice and lemon juice into a pan and bring it to the boil over medium-high heat. Lower the heat and simmer until the apples are soft, about 15 minutes. Stir through the sugar and mix until melted. Add the cinnamon and stir through.
• Puree the mixture in a food processor, blender or food mill. If not using right away, leave to cool and then refrigerate.

Steps:

• Core the apples. Peel if desired.
• Peel mango and cut into bite sized pieces.
• Cut apples into bite sized pieces.
• Add apples and mango to a large pot or Dutch oven. Add just enough water to keep fruit from sticking.
• Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until fruit is soft.
• Transfer cooked fruit to a blender, food processor, or food mill.
• Process to desired consistency.
• Return to Dutch oven. Taste pureed fruit.
• Add honey if desired. Stir to mix well.

• Cover with two-piece lids and process in a water bath canner for 20 minutes.
• Remove from canner and let cool overnight.

Steps:

• Combine the apples, sugar, 1 cup water and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large pot. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook until the apples are very soft, 18 to 20 minutes.
• Stir in the lemon juice and cinnamon. Let cool for 5 minutes or so, then transfer the apple mixture to a blender, filling no more than halfway. Remove the center cap from the lid and place it on the blender. Cover the lid with a folded kitchen towel to catch splatters and pulse until smooth. Alternatively, puree in the pan with an immersion blender.
• Transfer the applesauce to a bowl and refrigerate until cool, about 1 hour. Store leftover applesauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Steps:

• Open the jar of applesauce and pour it in a serving bowl.
• Sprinkle the gelatin over it and stir to combine.
