Pear Apple Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the apples, pears, lemon juice, cinnamon sticks, nutmeg, 1 tablespoon sugar and 1/4 cup water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cover, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook until the apples and pears are very soft but still a bit chunky, 15 to 20 minutes. Taste the mixture and add the remaining tablespoon of sugar if desired.
• Remove the sauce from the heat and stir a few times until the sauce is well combined with small chunks. Cool to room temperature. Remove the cinnamon sticks and serve. (For a smoother sauce, remove from heat, remove the cinnamon sticks and then whisk the mixture until smooth before cooling.)

Steps:

• Fill a large bowl halfway with water. Add lemon juice and mix. Peel, core, and slice apples and pears, putting them in the lemon water to prevent browning.
• Drain fruit; do not rinse. Place drained fruit, 1/4 cup water, and cinnamon stick in a multi-functional electric pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Set the Manual mode to high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 3 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, up to 15 minutes. Unlock lid. Remove and discard cinnamon stick. Pass the cooked fruit through a food mill; sauce will be slightly coarse. Blend fruit with an immersion blender for a smoother sauce.

Steps:

• Toss together the apples, pears, 1/4 cup water, maple syrup and 2 teaspoons cinnamon in a large pot with a heavy bottom (a Dutch oven works great for this). Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, over low heat, until the fruit are very tender, about 45 minutes or up to 1 hour. Stir in the lemon juice and use a potato masher to smash to your desired consistency. If you like a completely smooth, pureed sauce, use an immersion blender to blend until smooth. Taste and add additional cinnamon to your liking.
• Serve warm, or cool completely and store in sterile jars with tight-fitting lids up to 1 week in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• Cut pears and apple into quarters. Remove and discard seeds, stems, labels, and any other undesirable bits. Transfer flesh and skin of fruit into a high-powered blender (such as NutriBullet®).
• Blend until pear applesauce is liquefied. Pour into a bowl. Refrigerate before serving, if desired.

Steps:

• Heat a skillet over medium heat; add pears, apples, water, and vanilla extract to the hot skillet. Cover and simmer fruit mixture for 10 minutes; remove lid and cook until most of liquid is evaporated and fruit is softened, 10 to 15 more minutes.
• Remove skillet from heat and transfer fruit mixture and any remaining liquid to a food processor. Process until smooth; stir in cinnamon. Serve warm or refrigerate up to 4 days.

Steps:

• Peel, core, and slice apples.
• In a large pot, bring apples, lemon juice, pears, ginger, and 1 1/2 cups water to a boil over high. Reduce heat and simmer until apples are very soft and falling apart, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Mash with a potato masher or pulse in a food processor until smooth with small chunks remaining. (Add sugar, if using.)
• Let cool, then transfer applesauce to airtight containers.

Steps:

• In 3-quart saucepan, mix pears, apples, lemon juice and honey until well combined. Stir in water.
• Cover; heat to boiling over medium heat. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook, stirring occasionally, 20 minutes.
• Uncover; mash pears and apples with potato masher; stir well. Continue cooking, uncovered, about 10 minutes longer or until most of water has evaporated. Cool slightly before serving. Store in airtight container in refrigerator.

Steps:

• Slice and core apples and pears (do not peel).
• Place all ingredients in a large stock pot and mix well.
• Cover and let simmer over low heat for 30 minutes, or until apples are soft and mushy, stir often.
• Remove from heat and let cool.
• Puree in a food processor.
• Pour sauce through a sieve to strain out any pieces of left peel.
• Apple-Pear sauce will last up to 3 weeks in the refrigerator or you can freeze it.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine pears, apple and wine or grape juice. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 40 minutes or until liquid is absorbed. Place applesauce in a bowl; stir in pear mixture. Sprinkle with cinnamon if desired. Serve warm or chilled.

Steps:

• 1. Core, peel, and cut the pears and apples into large chunks. In a large, heavy pot, toss with lemon juice to prevent discoloration.
• 2. Combine the pears and apples with the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, partially covered, for 15 minutes or until the fruit is tender but not mushy.
• 3. Uncover the pot, stir and cook 5 minutes more. Adjust the flavors and remove from heat, stirring carefully so as not to break up the fruit too much. Cool to room temperature. Refrigerate, covered, for up to 4 days.

Steps:

• Place all ingredients in a heavy saucepan.
• Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat to a simmer.
• Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced to a chunky sauce, about 10 minutes.
• Remove from the heat, cool, and refrigerate until needed.
• You can also freeze in ice cube trays. Keep frozen cubes in a plastic bag so you can remove one portion at a time.

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir apples, Asian pears, and apple cider together in the skillet until the fruit is mushy, about 10 minutes.
• Smash the apples and pears with the back of a wooden spoon until no large chunks remain; continue cooking until thickened, 20 to 30 minutes more.
• Stir sugar and cinnamon into the sauce; cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves completely, 5 to 7 minutes more.
