Applesauce


 Homemade applesauce is as delicious as sugar can get. I like to replace sugar in baking recipes with applesauce; simply to use sugar in a natural form as possible. Added benefit is that using applesauce in recipes as much as possible makes it diabetes friendly. This particular recipe is as kids friendly as 9 months and onward. Cinnamon is an excellent spice for a baby to have as a first spice to taste. Applesauce is a delicious way to introduce an apple to baby.

Ingredients:
1. Organic Gala Apples - 8 Medium
2. Water - 1 Cup
3. Lemon Juice - 1 TBSP
4. Ground Cinnamon - 1/2 TSP

Method:
1. Even using organic apples, wash apples thoroughly.

2. Peel and core all of those. Roughly slice and place in an instant pot.

3. Add water, lemon juice and ground cinnamon. 

4. Close the lid of instant pot with vent on manual mode. Set the pressure cooker for 8 min. 

5. Let the instant pot cool down. You have well cooked apple slices now.

6. Mash up the cooked apple slices depending on how smooth texture you prefer. 

7. Once completely cool down, refrigerate the applesauce. It’s good to use for 7-10 days.
