Homemade Apple Sauce

In this Diwali vacation I had been to Himachal Pradesh for a holiday. In Himachal Pradesh one will find variety of apples and roasted ground nuts being sold at every junction and corner.   

Whenever we went sightseeing these two items would be a must in our bag. Here I found the golden apple so sweet and grainy could not resist picking up a few kilos back home. Some went in distribution to neighbours and friends. Still there was basket full remaining. I always wanted to make apple sauce, at last went ahead and prepared them from these apples. So here is the recipe very simple and hassle free.
This recipe is updated on May 14, 2021. For the update version I have ground the cinnamon to powder with a tablespoon of sugar.

Ingredients 

3 - 4 Medium Apples
1 Tablespoon  Sugar - optional
½ Cup Water
½ Teaspoon Cinnamon Powder

Method  

Peel and chop the apple to small pieces. 

In pan place the apples and pour the water, keep it on medium flame, when it comes to a boil cover with a foil and cook it for 20 minutes on slow flame stirring in between till dry.  

When the water dries, switch off the flame taste add if ground cinnamon sugar and stir. Let is cool completely then blend it in a blender. Fill it in a airtight container. Store it in the refrigerator for 2 -3 days. If you want it to last longer store in freezer it will last for months. 

Homemade Apple Sauce is ready. 

This goes well with any bread.
