How to Make Apple And Pear Sauce

  1. Core, peel, and chop 4 large apples (about 2 pounds) and 2 large pears (about 1 pound) into 1-inch chunks.
  2. Place the chopped apples and pears in a 2-quart saucepan.
  3. Add 1/2 cup apple juice, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg.
  4. Cover the saucepan and simmer over medium-low heat for 20-25 minutes, or until the fruit is fork-tender.
  5. Carefully mash the fruit with a fork, leaving some chunks for texture.
  6. Stir in honey to taste (start with 2 tablespoons and add more as needed).
  7. Serve warm or cold. Refrigerate leftovers for up to 5 days.
