Martha Stewart Apple Sauce Recipe
Are you looking for a sweet and healthy treat? The Martha Stewart Apple Sauce Recipe is a perfect choice.
Equipment
- Large Heavy Pot
- Vegetable peeler
- Chef Knife
- Potato masher
- Food Mill or Blender
- Measuring Spoons
Ingredients
- 4 lbs SWEET APPLES
- 1/2 cup WATER
- 2 tbsp GRANULATED SUGAR
- 1 tbsp FRESH LEMON JUICE
- 1/2 tsp GROUND CINNAMON
- 1 pinch SALT
Instructions
- Peel and core all of your sweet apples. Slice them into small and even pieces for cooking. This helps them soften at the same time.
- Place the apple slices in your large heavy pot. Add the water and the fresh lemon juice now. This starts the cooking process for the fruit.
- Turn the stove to medium-high heat right now. Bring the liquid to a very gentle boil quickly. Stir the pot so the apples do not stick.
- Lower the heat and cover the large pot. Let the apples simmer for about twenty minutes total. They should be very soft when poked with forks.
- Stir in the sugar and the ground cinnamon. Use your potato masher to crush the soft fruit. You can leave some chunks for a rustic feel.
- Remove the pot from the hot stove now. Let the sauce cool down before you eat it. Serve it warm or chill it in the fridge.
Notes
- Use a mix of different apple types.
- Slice the apples into very small pieces.
- Add more water if the pot gets dry.
- Use a food mill for a smooth sauce.
- Taste the fruit before adding extra sugar.
- Add a cinnamon stick for deeper flavor today.
- Let the sauce cool to thicken up well.
- Use fresh lemon to keep the color bright.
