Applesauce without sugar

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make applesauce without sugar for the winter at home? Very simple! Prepare all the necessary ingredients. You can omit adding cinnamon if you wish. You will learn all the subtleties of preparing winter preparations by reading the article on this topic. There is a link to it at the end of the recipe.

2. STEP 2

   

   Choose apples without scratches or dents. Wash the apples under running water and cut in half. Using a sharp knife, remove the seed pods and stalks. And then cut the halves in half again. This way the apples will be ready faster. You don’t have to cut the skin off homemade apples, as they contain a lot of healthy fiber. But if the apples are purchased and covered with wax, I recommend cutting off the peel.

3. STEP 3

   

   After peeling the apples, immediately begin heat treatment, otherwise they will have time to darken. Place the apples in a suitable sized saucepan and fill with water. I took a deep steel ladle. Over medium heat, bring the apples to a boil and simmer for about fifteen minutes with the lid closed. The article at the end of this recipe will help you decide on the choice of pan.

4. STEP 4

   

   Cooking times may vary. Check readiness by piercing with a knife. If the apples are soft, then it’s time to remove from the heat. Stir the apples periodically, checking to see if the water has boiled away. If yes, just add more. Wash the jars with a brush and baking soda and sterilize. Wash the lids, pour boiling water over them and leave for now. An article on this topic will help you choose a sterilization method. Link at the end of the recipe.

5. STEP 5

   

   When the apples are ready, transfer them to a bowl suitable for use with an immersion blender (the attachment may scratch the pan). I, at my own peril and risk, will work directly in the ladle. And immediately, without waiting for it to cool, thoroughly chop the apples into a homogeneous puree. Be careful not to get burned! Halfway through mixing, add cinnamon to taste and continue whisking. This way the spice will be better distributed in the puree.

6. STEP 6

   

   Place the still hot puree into the prepared jars and roll up the lids. Turn the jars upside down and wrap them, for example, in a towel. The jars should cool completely at room temperature. Then store them in a cool place.

I picked a lot of apples in the garden and decided to make sugar-free applesauce from them for the winter. After cooking, I thoroughly beat the apples with a blender, did not add cinnamon, I prepared the puree mainly for children. The finished puree was not very sweet, but very aromatic :) a good recipe, I recommend it to everyone who wants to preserve the benefits of apples and stock up on vitamins for the winter

An excellent dish from a range of baby food and more! Tasty and healthy. Thank you very much for the recipe! I recommend another apple preparation. Fragrant jam for the winter made from juicy apples! Wonderful preparation! The recipe can become a lifesaver if you have a large harvest of a suitable variety of apples!

Thanks for the recipe, we have a lot of apples and don’t know what to do with them anymore. And there is a baby at home, so this is a very timely recipe. I also really liked the aromatic apple jam! This jam is like honey - transparent, thick, incredibly beautiful!

Will it definitely be stored without sugar? what is the shelf life? I have an eternal problem - I don’t like the sweet taste, but if you add too little sugar, it won’t keep...

Excuse me, but 70 ml of water is enough to boil 400 g of apples in?
