Homemade Apple Sauce | How to make apple sauce?

homemade apple sauce

Did you know apple sauce is a substitute for eggs in baking? Several cakes and desserts can be baked with homemade apple sauce. It is super easy to make.
Homemade apple sauce can be used as a dip just as a little snack with some cut fruits. It can also be used to pour over ice cream just like caramel or fudge sauce. A healthier alternative!
I used this batch of homemade apple sauce to make apple pancakes. I have adapted this apple sauce from The Pioneer Woman recipe.  Homemade apple sauce is scrumptious and can be eaten by the spoonful. Delicious!


I do not add butter to apple sauce and keep it plain and simple. Any kind of apples you have on hand is enough to make this homemade apple sauce.

Notes
Purée to chunky texture if you want

You can also freeze apple sauce, thaw well before use

Regular sugar can also be used, brown sugar gives a nice depth of taste and colour to the sauce
