APPLE PEAR SAUCE

Pear applesauce? Papplesauce? Appearsauce? When the apple-pear sauce is served warm, you will not need any additional sugar. As it cools it loses some of the natural sweetness, and you might want to add sugar to taste.

The natural sweetness of fresh apples and pears makes this homemade sauce a standout over the store-bought version. Lemon juice adds brightness and keeps the fruit from browning, and cinnamon and nutmeg lend warm spice notes.

3 McIntosh apples, peeled, cored and chopped into 1/2-inch pieces
3 ripe Bartlett pears, peeled, cored and chopped into 1/2-inch pieces
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
6 cinnamon sticks
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 to 2 tablespoons sugar

Steps:

  • Combine the apples, pears, lemon juice, cinnamon sticks, nutmeg, 1 tablespoon sugar and 1/4 cup water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

Taste the mixture and add the remaining tablespoon of sugar if desired.

APPLE-PEAR SAUCE



Apple-Pear Sauce image

Homemade applesauce is way more delicious than anything out of a jar, and the perk is you can eat it warm-when my family likes it best-and jar any leftovers. Making it from scratch allows you to keep it as chunky as you prefer, or puree it completely. I add pear for juice and sweetness, and just a bit of lemon and cinnamon. The trick is to not overcomplicate it with too many spices and overpower that fresh-picked apple taste. We always double and sometimes triple this batch and make extra to share with friends. Any home with a new baby or someone who is healing will appreciate this nurturing homemade simple treat.

Time 1h25m

Yield 8 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

5 pounds mix of firm, tart apples, such as Honeycrisp or Crispin, and sweet apples, such as Golden Delicious or Cortland (about 10 to 12 large apples), peeled, cored and chopped
2 1/2 pounds juicy Bartlett pears (about 5 large pears), peeled, cored and chopped
2 to 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
2 to 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Toss together the apples, pears, 1/4 cup water, maple syrup and 2 teaspoons cinnamon in a large pot with a heavy bottom (a Dutch oven works great for this). Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, over low heat, until the fruit are very tender, about 45 minutes or up to 1 hour. Stir in the lemon juice and use a potato masher to smash to your desired consistency. If you like a completely smooth, pureed sauce, use an immersion blender to blend until smooth. Taste and add additional cinnamon to your liking.
  • Serve warm, or cool completely and store in sterile jars with tight-fitting lids up to 1 week in the refrigerator.
