Strawberry Applesauce
Satisfy your sweet tooth with this 3-ingredient homemade strawberry applesauce - a delicious and easy-to-make snack!
Servings: 2 cups
Ingredients
- 6 medium royal gala apples (6 cups chopped)
- 1 1/2 cups strawberries (quartered)
- 2/3 cup water
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar (add 1/2 cup if berries aren't sweet)
Instructions
- Begin by peeling, coring, and chopping the apples into evenly sized-pieces. Then, remove the stems from the strawberries and quarter them.
- Next, combine the apples, strawberries, water, and sugar in a large pot (5-6qt). Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer over medium heat. Cover and cook for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are incredibly tender. (Lift the lid to prevent the mixture from boiling over.)
- Once the mixture has cooled slightly, blend it until smooth or to your desired texture, using an immersion or stand blender. Serve chilled for optimal taste.
