Instant Pot Cinnamon Pear Applesauce Recipe

Instantpot pear applesauce

Tip: For added fiber, do not peel the apples or pear prior to cooking. The final result will still be smooth and creamy after blending.

Prep time: 10 minutes • Active cook time: 4 minutes (+ time to come to pressure) • Natural release: 10 minutes • Serves: 4

Instant Pot Apple Sauce RecipeIngredients:

4 large apples, cored and chopped
2 large pears, cored and chopped
¼ c. water or apple juice
2 t. ground cinnamon
1 T. fresh lemon juice
1-2 T. Great Canadian Honey

Directions:

  1. Combine apples, pears, water, ground cinnamon, fresh lemon juice, and Great Canadian Honey in Instant Pot® and stir to combine. Add lid and lock into place. Switch the vent to “Sealing” and set the “Manual” setting to 4 minutes.
  2. When cook time is complete, allow pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes, then manually release any remaining pressure.
  3. Transfer apple mixture to a food processor or high-powered blender and blend until smooth. (For chunkier results, use an immersion blender instead).
  4. Serve immediately, or transfer to airtight containers and place in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one week. Enjoy!
