APPLESAUCE SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Evenly spread the applesauce on four slices of bread.
• Top with remaining bread to make 4 sandwiches.
• Spread butter on the outsides of the sandwiches.
• Place sandwiches (I usually do 2 at a time because of my skillet size) in a skillet over medium-high heat; cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
• Mix together the sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over hot sandwiches.
• Serve immediately.
• Note: I quarter each sandwich for my kids; they love these for breakfast.

GRILLED APPLESAUCE SANDWICH

Steps:

• Butter bread as if making a grilled cheese sandwich (not too much or it will get soggy).
• Place applesauce on bread and make a sandwich.
• Grill on both sides until crispy outside and warm inside.

THE BEST HOMEMADE APPLESAUCE

Steps:

• Combine the apples, sugar, 1 cup water and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large pot. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook until the apples are very soft, 18 to 20 minutes.
• Stir in the lemon juice and cinnamon. Let cool for 5 minutes or so, then transfer the apple mixture to a blender, filling no more than halfway. Remove the center cap from the lid and place it on the blender. Cover the lid with a folded kitchen towel to catch splatters and pulse until smooth. Alternatively, puree in the pan with an immersion blender.
• Transfer the applesauce to a bowl and refrigerate until cool, about 1 hour. Store leftover applesauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

FRESH APPLESAUCE

Steps:

• In a blender or food processor, combine all ingredients; cover and process until smooth. Transfer to a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate until serving.

CHUNKY APPLESAUCE

Steps:

• Peel, core, and cut apples into 3/4-inch chunks. Melt margarine in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Add apples, cinnamon, sugar, and two tablespoons water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender, about 10 minutes. Serve warm or chilled.

CLASSIC APPLESAUCE

Steps:

• Combine apples, cinnamon stick, lemon juice, salt, and 1/4 cup water in a large Dutch oven or other heavy pot. Scrape in seeds from vanilla bean and add pod. Cover pot and cook over medium-low heat, occasionally stirring with a wooden spoon and checking to make sure apples are not scorching (add a splash of water if they are), until apples are soft and falling apart, 35-45 minutes. Uncover pot and let apples cool slightly.
• Working in batches, pass apples through food mill fitted with a medium disk into a large bowl; discard solids. If sauce is watery, return to pot and simmer over medium heat until thickened.
• Do Ahead:
• Applesauce can be made 4 days ahead. Let cool; cover and chill.
