RECIPE

  • 2 apples or pears, or 1 of each (any variety)
  • dash cinnamon
  • dash nutmeg
  • water

Peel,

core, and thinly slice apples (and/or pears) into a microwave safe bowl.

Add a dusting of cinnamon and nutmeg (you can add more later to taste if you like).

Add 1 tablespoon water for each apple or pear. Cover with a paper towel, and microwave for 2 minutes. Stir, and then re-cover with paper towel and microwave at 1 minute increments stirring in between until it reaches the desired consistancy, and adding more water if needed. Two apples takes about 5 minutes.

I like a chunkier applesauce.  You can microwave yours longer until it’s more saucy and less chunky.

This recipe can be modified to make more-  just add more apples or pears, cinnamon, nutmeg, and water accordingly. And if you want, you can dress it up with raisins, cranberries, or nuts.  You can even add a little heavy cream into your cooked applesauce if you like.
