Ingredients

  • 6-7 medium-sized apples peeled and roughly chopped
  • 16 ounces fresh strawberries hulled and cut in half
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/8 to 1/4 cups sugar*

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients into the Instant Pot.
  • Place Instant Pot on high pressure (or manual) for 5 minutes then natural release until all pressure has released.
  • Mash strawberry applesauce with a potato masher or immersion blender until desired consistency.
  • Taste applesauce and add in desired amount of sugar.
  • Turn Instant Pot to Saute and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occassionally until sauce thickens slightly. This will look like a waterier consistency, but it will thicken a little more when cooled.
  • Enjoy immediately or refrigerate for up to 5 days.

Notes

*Use very ripe strawberries and gala apples to create a no-sugar added variety.
