Homemade Applesauce

​6 Granny Smith Apples, cored/diced (peeled for RAW recipe)
1 tsp Cinnamon (or to taste)
Swerve sweetener, to taste
​Purified water (if/as needed)
2 tsp Lemon juice (RAW recipe only)

COOKED APPLESAUCE: Combine apples (not necessary to peel if cooking), cinnamon & Swerve in a high-powered blender and blend until you get your desired consistency, adding water as needed. Pour into a sauce pan. Bring to slow boil and reduce to simmer 10 minutes.

RAW APPLESAUCE: Combine 6 apples (peeled, cored & diced), 2 Tbsp lemon juice & 2 tsp Cinnamon to high-powered blender. Blend to desired consistency, adding minimal raw honey or Swerve only if necessary ;)
Applesauce makes a great snack, side or "compote" topping for my Pork Tenderloin.

​Feel free to use raw honey or agave to sweeten if you are not on a Candida Detox. However, I challenge you to practice eating things naturally sweet without adding extra sweeteners when possible ;) 

*For easy thawing, freeze flat in Ziploc bag.
