How to make Instant Pot Applesauce
This recipe is so easy to make! First cut up the apples into large slices, basically cutting out just the core. The larger the apple slices the fewer apple peels you will need to remove after cooking.
Next, place apple slices and water in Instant Pot and secure lid. Set the Instant Pot to manual or the pressure cook set to high for 5 minutes. After pressure has been reached and the 5 minutes of cooking has been completed, allow for natural pressure release for an additional 5 minutes before switching to quick pressure release.
Use 2 forks to pull the apple peels away from the apples. The peels should come off easily, so you can also use tongs to remove the peels as well.
Mix until the consistency is uniform then add sugar and cinnamon to taste. This applesauce is delicious when served both warm and cold. You can store this applesauce in the refrigerator for up to one week.
