Ingredients

  • 8 medium apples, honey-crisp or gala are my favorite
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 TBS lemon juice
  • ½ tsp cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Prep the apples: wash, peel, and core. Chop the apples into chunks no bigger than 2 inches by 2 inches.

  2. Place 1 cup of water into the pot of the Instant Pot, then add the apples, lemon juice, and cinnamon.

  3. Close the top, seal the Instant Pot and set for 7 minutes at high/manual pressure.

  4. When the time is up, naturally release the pressure for 10 minutes (don’t flip the seal valve), then release the remaining pressure out. Open the instant pot.

  5. Using an immersion blender, blend the applesauce mixture until smooth and creamy. If you like the applesauce chunkier, use a potato masher or pastry blender to mash.

  6. Transfer the applesauce to a air tight container and store in the refrigerator.
