How to Make Blueberry Applesauce Vegitarian Friendly
- Peel, core, and chop 4 medium apples (about 2 pounds) into 1-inch pieces.
- In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the chopped apples, 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries, 1 cinnamon stick, the zest and juice of 1 lemon, 2 tablespoons pomegranate molasses, and ½ cup apple juice.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the apples are very tender and the blueberries have softened and released their juices.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Remove the cinnamon stick.
- Carefully transfer the applesauce to a blender or food processor (or use an immersion blender) and puree until smooth. Be cautious when blending hot liquids.
- Return the pureed applesauce to the saucepan.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon almond extract and sweetener to taste (start with 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey, adding more as needed).
- Taste and adjust sweetness as desired.
- Transfer the applesauce to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
