Let pressure release naturally., Mash apples with a potato masher or use an immersion blender until blended. Serve warm or store in airtight container in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• You can blend the applesauce in a blender so it's completely smooth, but I like to leave it a little chunky. An immersion blender is the perfect tool for making applesauce. You can blend it as much as you like right in the pot. Place the apple pieces, apple juice, sugar and cinnamon in the pressure cooker and stir to combine. Select High Pressure and set cook time for 4 minutes. (It took about about 10 minutes to come up to pressure.) Stir apples, breaking up large chunks, until you've achieved your desired consistency. (Or you can take the easy way like I did and blend the apples with an immersion blender in the pot.)

Steps:

• In a 2-quart or larger pressure cooker, add water, mulling spices and apples. Allow water to begin simmering.
• Close lid and bring pressure to 2nd red ring (high pressure) over high heat. Adjust heat to stabilize pressure at 2nd red ring. Cook for 3-5 minutes.
• Remove from heat and use Natural Release Method.
• For me, I mash up the apples to leave them chunky. For my grand-baby, I puree in a Vitamix blender.
• If desired, add butter, raisins and or walnuts to warmed applesauce.
