Applesauce
When fall comes around, nothing is
better than the aroma of apples
cooking in the home.
Setting: Slow Cook
Makes about 4 cups
3½ pounds apples, cored and cut into
two-inch pieces (peeled or unpeeled)
2 cinnamon sticks
2 pinches freshly ground nutmeg
pinch ground cloves
pinch kosher salt
2
⁄3 cup water
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1. Put all of the ingredients into the cooking
pot of the Multicooker.
2. Cover and set to Slow Cook on Low
for 4 hours.
3. Once unit switches to Keep Warm, remove
the cinnamon sticks. If a chunky sauce is
desired, use a potato masher to mash
apples to desired consistency. If a smooth
sauce is preferred, transfer apples to a fine
mesh strainer and press through with the
help of a ladle. Once the apples have
passed through the strainer, discard the
skins (if necessary) and return smooth
apples to the cooking pot. Keep sauce on
Keep Warm for serving, or cool to room
temperature and store in the refrigerator.
