Cooking

Cook the Mixture
Over medium heat, bring the mixture to a boil while stirring occasionally. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and cover the pot.

Simmer
Allow the apples to simmer for about 30 minutes, or until they are soft and tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Blending

Blend to Desired Consistency
Remove the pot from heat. Using an immersion blender, blend the apple mixture until smooth. If you prefer a chunkier texture, you can mash the apples with a potato masher instead.

Cool and Store
Allow the applesauce to cool to room temperature. Transfer it to airtight containers and store in the refrigerator for up to one week, or freeze for longer storage.
