Filling your kitchen with the sweet festive smell of homemade applesauce just got easier & quicker than you can imagine when you make Instant Pot Applesauce.
Choose a variety of apples for a full-rounded flavored sauce. I like combining Granny Smith and Honey Crisp, but any sweet and tart apple pairs well together.
– Wash apples, peel, and core. I simply peel then quarter the apples and cut the core out with a knife.
Step 1
Place apples in Instant Pot with water and lemon juice. Seal and pressure cook.
Step 2
This recipe can have endless variations of fun flavors! You can add 1/2 tea. of cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, or 1/2 cup of other fruits such as raspberries, pears, or even rhubarb.
– Remove apples from Instant Pot to a bowl and mash with a fork or potato masher. You can slightly mash for a chunky sauce or more for a fine thinner sauce.
