THE BEST HOMEMADE APPLESAUCE



The Best Homemade Applesauce image

After tasting the pure apple flavor of this homemade sauce, you just might never go back to the store-bought kind. Supermarket applesauce can be loaded with added sweeteners and flavorings. We use only a little sugar, plus lemon juice, salt and cinnamon, providing a balanced flavor and the perfect amount of sweetness.

Time 1h35m

Yield about 5 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 pounds assorted apples, such as Golden Delicious, Gala, Honeycrisp or McIntosh (about 8), peeled, cored and chopped
1/4 cup sugar
Kosher salt
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

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.

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 cups cake flour
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 cups milk, plus more if needed
2 cups Applesauce, recipe follows
1 tablespoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
2 eggs
Butter, for cooking and serving
Maple syrup, warmed, for serving
6 pounds mixed apple varieties (Gala, Honeycrisp, Golden Delicious), peeled, cored and cut into eighths
1 cup apple juice or water
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the cake flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Stir together and set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, Applesauce, vanilla, cinnamon and eggs. Slowly drizzle the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spoon as you go. Once combined, if the mixture needs more moisture, splash in a little more milk. The batter should be pourable.
  • Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-low to low heat. Smear a little bit of butter over the surface and drop tablespoon-sized amounts of batter onto the pan (more if you want larger pancakes). Wait a minute or so, then flip to the other side. The pancakes should be light golden brown and set in the middle.
  • Top with butter and drizzle with warm maple syrup.
  • Throw the apples, apple juice and lemon juice into a pan and bring it to the boil over medium-high heat. Lower the heat and simmer until the apples are soft, about 15 minutes. Stir through the sugar and mix until melted. Add the cinnamon and stir through.
  • Puree the mixture in a food processor, blender or food mill. If not using right away, leave to cool and then refrigerate.

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

8 slices bacon, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 yellow onion, chopped
2 cups stone-ground grits (the coarser the better!)
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
2 cups heavy cream
Dash of cayenne, or to taste
1 1/2 cups grated Monterey Jack or other cheese
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
Six 1/2-inch-thick boneless pork chops
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups Applesauce, recipe follows
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
3/4 cup pure maple syrup
6 pounds mixed apple varieties (Gala, Honeycrisp, Golden Delicious), peeled, cored and cut into eighths
1 cup apple juice or water
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • For the grits: In a large pot over medium heat, cook the bacon and onions until the bacon is chewy and the onions are translucent, about 1 minute. Pour in the grits and add the chicken broth. Stir together and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, for 30 to 40 minutes. Add the cream and cayenne, stirring them into the grits. Cover the pot and keep cooking over very low heat, stirring occasionally to keep them from sticking, until the grits are tender but still have a bite to them, another 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Just before serving, stir in the cheese. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • For the pork chops: Melt the butter with the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper. Add the pork chops to the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. (They'll finish cooking in the skillet later.) Remove the pork chops to a plate.
  • Put the skillet back on the heat, add the Applesauce and pour in the wine and vinegar. Cook until the liquid reduces by half, about 5 minutes. Pour in the maple syrup, stir it in and allow it to come to a bubble. Add the pork chops to the skillet, reduce the heat to low, cover and cook for another 20 minutes.
  • To serve, spoon a generous helping of grits onto a plate. Lay a pork chop on top of the grits, and then spoon the apples over the top. Be sure to get a little extra pan sauce onto the plate.
  • Throw the apples, apple juice and lemon juice into a pan and bring it to the boil over medium-high heat. Lower the heat and simmer until the apples are soft, about 15 minutes. Stir through the sugar and mix until melted. Add the cinnamon and stir through.
  • Puree the mixture in a food processor, blender or food mill. If not using right away, leave to cool and then refrigerate.
