I love applesauce all year round... but especially in the fall. Fall is my favorite time of year. I love the colors, the smells, the crisp weather, & the warm, hearty food.
This is my recipe for super easy at-home applesauce. Perfect for using up some of your less pretty apples (bruises don't matter once they're baked). Great for entertaining, as your house will smell amazing & your guests will have a sweet, healthy dessert.
I came up with this recipe after searching all around for a cinnamon apple side-dish to serve with the pork chops I was making for my boyfriend's "surprise dinner". Every site I found seemed to recommend canned pie filling & strange additives.... I decided to pass on that & make my own.
Apples are delicious on their own, so they don't need much help to create a great applesauce. Use whatever apples are your favorite, and feel free to mix & match to switch up the flavors. I go for Pink Lady apples, since they are a favorite of mine (& boyfriend's) for their sweet-yet-slightly-tart taste.
This is amazing served warm for dessert (would be perfect with vanilla ice cream!) & just as good as a cold snack. Mix in some almond butter for some healthy fats & a little crunch! I hope you enjoy one of my most favorite recipes, & happy Fall!
