Zubereitung von Spiced Blueberry Applesauce
- Peel, core, and chop 6 pounds of apples (about 10 medium).
- In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, combine the chopped apples with 2 cups of fresh or frozen blueberries.
- Add 1/2 cup of water to the bottom of the pot.
- Over high heat, bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly.
- Reduce heat to medium-low. Continue to stir frequently until the apples are soft and beginning to break down (about 20-30 minutes).
- Stir in 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, and a pinch of salt.
- Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves and the sauce slightly thickens (about 10-15 minutes).
- Remove from heat and keep warm.
- Using an immersion blender, food processor, or food mill, puree the applesauce to your desired consistency (chunky or smooth).
- Stir in 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice.
- Ladle the hot applesauce into sterilized pint or quart jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace.
- Remove air bubbles using a spatula or clean spoon.
- Wipe jar rims clean with a damp cloth. Center lids and tighten bands, ensuring they are sealed but not overly tight.
- Process in a boiling water bath canner for 20 minutes (pints or quarts).
- Turn off heat. Let jars sit in the canner for 5 minutes.
- Carefully remove jars and place them on a folded towel to cool completely.
- Check seals after 24 hours. Lids should be concave and firmly sealed. If not, refrigerate and use within a few days or re-can.
- Makes approximately 8 pints or 4 quarts.
