8 apples, granny smiths are good

  • I usually cook it about 3 hours.

Yield Makes about 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 apples (about 2 pounds), peeled, cored, and chopped
1 cup fresh cranberries, picked over
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup apple juice or water
a 3-inch cinnamon stick
a 3-inch strip of lemon zest removed with a vegetable peeler
2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • In a heavy saucepan cook the apples, the cranberries, the sugar, the apple juice or water, the cinnamon stick, and the zest over moderate heat, stirring, for 15 minutes, or until the apples are very soft. Discard the cinnamon stick and the zest, force the apple mixture through the medium disk of a food mill into a bowl, and stir in the butter. Serve the applesauce warm or chilled. The applesauce keeps, covered and chilled, for 1 week.

Tips:

  • Fresh cranberries are the star of this recipe, providing a tart and tangy flavor. If you can't find fresh cranberries, frozen cranberries can be used instead. Just be sure to thaw them before using.
  • Using a variety of apples adds depth and complexity to the flavor of the applesauce. Some good choices include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn apples.
  • The red hots candy adds a unique and festive flavor to the applesauce. If you don't like spicy food, you can omit the red hots or use a smaller amount.
