Instant Pot Applesauce

Combining the best of fall with pumpkin and apples in this dish. Typically, applesauce is considered a side dish but is also super delish as a warm breakfast snack when topped with walnuts and sliced apples.

INGREDIENTS:

8 MEDIUM RED APPLES (your choice, I love honey crisp for the extra sweetness)
1, 15-OZ CAN PUMPKIN PUREE
3 TBSP PURE MAPLE SYRUP
1-1/2 TSP PURE VANILLA EXTRACT
1-1/2 TSP GROUND CINNAMON
1 TSP PUMPKIN PIE SPICE
½ TSP GROUND GINGER
½ TSP GROUND NUTMEG
½ CUP WATER
TOPPINGS: chopped walnuts, sliced apples, coconut flakes

DIRECTIONS:

STEP 1:
Peel and cube apples, place in pressure cooker (or regular slow cooker)

STEP 2:
Add remaining ingredients.

STEP 3:
Cook for 40 minutes in pressure cooker or 4-6 hours using slow cooker. When apples can easily be mashed you are done.

STEP 4:
Place mix into blender or food processor and process until it’s as chunky or smooth as you wish.
