Ingredients

  • 8 apples peeled, cored and chopped
  • ¾ cup water
  • cup brown sugar
  • cup white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract stir in at the end

Instructions

  • Add water, brown sugar, white sugar, ground cinnamon and lemon juice to the Foodi cooking pot.
  • Stir in chopped apples until they are coated.
  • Select HIGH PRESSURE for 8 minutes. Then quick release.
  • Remove the lid.
  • Smash any remaining large chunks with a potato masher.
  • Stir in vanilla and enjoy.

Notes

  • If making this applesauce on the stovetop, mix the ingredients in a large cooking pot and stir the apples over medium to medium-high heat. Then cover the pot and let the apples cook for 25 minutes or so until tender.
  • Be sure to clean, peel, core, and chop your apples before you begin mixing them. 
  • For even more flavor, substitute your water with apple juice or cider. 
  • For chunky applesauce, use a potato masher to mash your cooked apples.
  • For a smooth applesauce, blend your cooked apple chunks in a food processor or blender.
