Como fazer Applesauce
- Peel, core, and chop 4 pounds of apples (about 8-10 medium apples).
- In a large pot, combine the chopped apples, 1/2 cup of water, 2 cinnamon sticks, and 1 lemon peel (zest and juice).
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-30 minutes, or until apples are very tender. Stir occasionally.
- Carefully remove cinnamon sticks and lemon peel.
- For chunky applesauce: Use a potato masher to gently mash the apples to your desired consistency.
- For smooth applesauce: Process the cooked apples through a food mill for a completely smooth texture.
- Taste and adjust sweetness by adding 1/4 cup of sugar or maple syrup (optional).
- Serve warm or cold. Enjoy with vanilla ice cream or as a side dish!
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to one year.
