An easy, full of flavour apple sauce recipe the whole family will love
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 4 hours

Ingredients
 
 

  • 5 to 6 apples, peeled and sliced
  • 4 to 6 pears, peeled and sliced
  • ¼ cup white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ginger
  • teaspoon cloves, optional
  • ¼ cup water or apple juice I also use apple and pear juice

Instructions

  • Place the peeled and sliced apples and pears in the crock pot.
  • Sprinkle with the sugar and spices.
  • Pour the water or juice over top.
  • Stir lightly and cover.
  • Cook on low for 4 to 5 hours, stirring once or twice.
  • If you like your Apple and Pear Sauce very smooth, cool a little before blending with an immersion blender.
  • If, like me, you like your Apple and Pear Sauce a bit chunkier, simply mash with a potato masher until the desired consistency is reached.
