Raspberry Cinnamon Applesauce Recipes

Steps:

• Heat apples, 1/2 cup water, and cinnamon in a medium pot over medium-high. Bring to a simmer, then cover, reduce heat to low, and cook until apples are tender, 25 to 30 minutes. Add raspberries; cook, stirring, until juicy, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; sprinkle with chia seeds. Let cool slightly, then mash. (If too thick, add water, 1 tablespoon at a time.) Applesauce can be refrigerated in an airtight container up to 2 weeks.

Steps:

• Place apples and raspberries in the rice cooker; add brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Add honey, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and water, in respective order.
• Set rice cooker to standard "cook" setting, about 30 minutes. Stir mixture halfway through cooking cycle, mashing apples a little bit.
• Remove the applesauce from the heat and cool for 30 minutes. Transfer applesauce to a bowl and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners.
• Stir brown sugar, applesauce, and egg in a bowl until well combined. Add flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt; stir until just combined. Fold in raspberries gently.
• Use a disher scoop to portion uniform amounts of batter into the prepared muffin tin.
• Bake in the preheated oven until muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove muffins from the tin immediately and cool on a wire rack.

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.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the zest and juice of the oranges and lemon in a large bowl. Peel, quarter, and core the apples (reserving the peel of 2 of the red apples) and toss them in the juice. Pour the apples, reserved apple peel, and juice into a nonreactive Dutch oven or enameled iron pot. Add the brown sugar, butter, cinnamon, and allspice and cover the pot. Bake for 1 1/2 hours, or until all the apples are soft. Remove and discard the red apple peel. Mix with a whisk until smooth, and serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• In a large heavy-bottomed pot, combine apples, lemon juice, 1/2 cup water, maple syrup and cinnamon, cover, and cook over medium heat, stirring often, until the apples have softened, around 15 minutes. Remove lid and cook for another 5 minutes, until any excess liquid cooks off.
• For a chunky sauce, use a potato masher to carefully mash the apples. For a smooth sauce, transfer the mixture to a food processor and pulse to your desired consistency. If you like a thinner sauce, add up to 1/2 cup of water.
• Taste and add a bit more maple syrup as necessary. (It will depend on the combination of apples.) Stir in a pinch of kosher salt.

Steps:

• In 6-quart stockpot or Dutch oven, place all ingredients. Heat to boiling, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low; cook uncovered 30 to 40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until apples are tender.
• Remove from heat; discard lemon peel and cinnamon sticks. Let apple mixture cool slightly, about 10 minutes; puree in a food processor, blender, or mash with a potato masher. Serve warm or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Combine apples, raspberries, water, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a slow cooker crock.
• Cook on Low until apples can easily be mashed, about 6 hours.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine apples with 1 cinnamon stick, jam, and water; bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until apples are tender (about 30 to 35 minutes). Add more water if necessary to prevent sticking.
• Remove from heat; remove cinnamon stick.
• Stir in 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice.
• The sauce will be somewhat chunky. If you prefer it smoother, puree it in a blender or food processor.

Steps:

• Place apples, raspberries and cinnamon sticks in Dutch oven. Bring to boil on medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low; cover. Simmer 15 to 20 min. or until apples are tender, stirring occasionally.
• Stir in sugar. Remove and discard cinnamon sticks. Cool to room temperature; cover.
• Refrigerate at least 1 hour or until ready to serve.
