How to Make Homemade Applesauce

  1. Step 1

    Peel and quarter apples. Remove the seeds and core. In a saucepan, add the apples and enough water to cover the bottom of the saucepan and cook over medium high heat. Bring the liquid to a boil; reduce heat to low and simmer until the apples are soft, stirring occasionally.

  2. Step 2

    Remove soft apples and mash with a potato masher for a rough, chunky sauce, or pureé in a food processor for a fine sauce. Add the honey and cinnamon and stir to combine.
