Homemade Applesauce Recipe

Serves 8  - 12

This is my absolutely favorite applesauce recipe, from Hayday. It is now owned by Sutton Place Gourmet, a wonderful specialty Food Chain on the East Coast. I sold them specialty food products for many years. If baking with this recipe, place a paper towel in a strainer, scoop in applesauce and place over a bowl for an hour. This will remove as much water as possible, necessary before using.
bullet6 medium cooking apples  (1 medium apple = 1/2 cup applesauce)
bullet1 cup water or apple cider 
bullet1/2 cup sugar 
bullet1/2 teaspoon cinnamon 
bullet2 tablespoons unsalted butter

1. Peel, core and cut up the apples. (If you want the applesauce to be pink, leave on the red peels). Place them in a saucepan with cider or water, sugar and cinnamon. 

2. Boil gently uncovered, until the apples are soft enough to mash, about 40 minutes. Stir with a fork to mash, leaving a few small lumps. 

3. Return to low heat. Stir in butter. Simmer until melted. Beat briefly. Serve.
