MARTHA'S PINK APPLESAUCE

Steps:

• Combine apples, lemon juice, and 1 1/2 cups water in a large pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium, partially cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until apples are completely soft, about 40 minutes.
• Pass apples through a medium-mesh sieve or a food mill fitted with the fine disk to remove skins. Applesauce can be stored in refrigerator up to 1 week, or in freezer up to 3 months. To can applesauce, follow these instructions.

20 MINUTE NO SUGAR PINK APPLESAUCE

Steps:

• Wash the apples well. Do Not Peel! Chop them into 1 inch pieces, discarding the core.
• Put the apples, cider, cinnamon and cloves into a heavy soup pot. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook over medium heat for about 20 minutes, stirring often, until the apples are soft.
• Remove the spices, and then puree the apples in a food processor. I did this in batches so as not to overload the processor. You can puree the apples to a super smooth consistency, or keep some texture. I chose to retain a little bit of texture in mine.
• Refrigerate the sauce until needed. It will keep for a week in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, combine apples, lemon juice, cinnamon, and salt. Cover, and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the apples break down to a sauce-like consistency.
• Remove from heat, uncover, and let stand until apples cool slightly. Using tongs or chopsticks, discard skins and mash apples for a chunky consistency. Use immediately, or store refrigerated, in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

PRETTY IN PINK APPLESAUCE

Steps:

• Peel the apples, reserving the peels of 6 of them.
• Quarter and core the apples.
• Combine all ingredients in a large saucepan; bring to a boil then reduce heat.
• Simmer mixture until apples are soft and you can mash them down into applesauce, about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• Remove from heat and cool.
• Remove peels from the applesauce and discard them.
• Mash applesauce a bit more if you wish (I like mine a bit chunky), then refrigerate until ready to serve.
• If you like, you can make extra applesauce and spoon into sterilized pint jars, seal and process in a boiling water bath for 15 minutes.

PINK APPLESAUCE

Steps:

• Wash apples thoroughly.
• Prepare a large bowl filled with cold water.
• Cut apples into cubes (keeping the skin but removing cores).
• As you cut the apples, throw them in cold water so they don't brown too much.
• When you've finished cutting, remove from water and place apples in a heavy-bottomed pot, add a tiny bit of water so that there is about 1cm covering the bottom.
• Cover and cook on LOW heat until apples are completely cooked.
• Stir once in a while.
• Working by the spoonful, press apples through a potato ricer or a strainer; discard skins between batches.
• If desired (this shouldn't be necessary), cream sauce in blender or food processor.
• Cool before refrigerating.
• ***This gives a very thick applesauce, to thin out, add more water during cooking.***.

EASY PINK APPLESAUCE

Steps:

• Peel, core and slice apples. (Since the peel is the healthiest part I said to myself you're the boss, applesauce, and went ahead and left on the peel but for texture/presentation like store-bought applesauce you may want to peel your apples.).
• Place apples in your crockpot and pour the Crème de cassis over them.
• Cook on low for 5-6 hours or on high for 2-3 hours, or until apples are very tender. Your home will smell WONDERFUL during this time.
• For a chunkier sauce (my recommendation), mash apples with a potato masher. You can do this right in the hot crockpot. For a smooth sauce like store-bought versions, puree mixture in a food processor or blender.
• Chill, tightly covered, until ready to serve.

• Serve the applesauce warm or chilled.
