How to Make Microwave Blender Gourmet Applesauce Or Compote Sugar Free

  1. Peel, core, and chop 2 pounds of apples. (Honeycrisp, Gala, or a mix of your favorite varieties work well)
  2. Add the chopped apples to a microwave-safe bowl. Add 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and 1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon (or to taste).
  3. Microwave on high for 8-10 minutes, stirring halfway through. Apples should be tender but not mushy.
  4. Carefully transfer the cooked apples to a blender. Add 1-2 tablespoons of water (or apple juice) if needed for a smoother consistency.

  6. Serve warm or cold. Enjoy as a healthy snack, breakfast topping, or a delicious side dish.
