Unsweetened Applesauce Recipes

UNSWEETENED APPLE SAUCE

Steps:

• Roughly peel all the apples and core them. Slice the apples about 1 cm thick.
• Add the apples to a saucepan with 1/4 cup water. Add the cloves and the cinnamon stick. Cover and let it simmer on a low flame for 15-20 minutes.
• Add a bit more water if it starts drying out. Conversely, cook them uncovered if there's too much water.
• What you're looking for at the end are well softened apples with very little liquid.
• Once the apples are cooked, remove the cinnamon stick and cloves. Either purée the apples in a food processor or mash them with a potato masher. I used the food processor.
• This apple sauce can be used in various low calorie baking recipes :).

UNSWEETENED APPLESAUCE

Steps:

• core apples.
• you may peel them if you'd like, i personally like the skins on.
• dice into bite-sizeish pieces.
• add enough water to cover about half the apples (you can always add more, but once it starts cooking it's hard to remove it, so err on the side of too little).
• add cinnamon and cloves.
• cook on high until the apples start to mush down.
• turn to low and let simmer until it seems done.
• don't forget to sample liberally.
