Plum Applesauce - West
- Reviews 3
Ready In: 1 hr 45 mins
Yields: 6 cups
Ingredients
- 2 lbs gala apples, quartered and seeded and left unpeeled (can substitute McIntosh)
- 2 lbs plums, quartered and pitted (red, black or Italian plums)
- 1⁄4 cup water
- 1⁄4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Directions
- Cook first 4 ingredients in a 4 -5 quart heavy pot, covered, over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until fruit is very tender and falling apart, 1 to 1 1/4 hours.
- Force mixture through a food mill using the finest blade.
- Add cinnamon and stir to incorporate.
- Will keep one week covered and chilled.
- Note: My cooked mixture created a LOT of liquid. I did not want a runny sauce, so before putting through the food mill, I put mixture in a sieve to separate out the liquid. AFTER using the food mill, I added just a bit of the liquid back until the sauce was a consistency I liked.
