Instructions

1 Peel, core, and chop the apples small if you want a smooth, skinless applesauce.
Or, you can also leave the skin on and use a food mill after completing the
cooking cycle. The food mill will make the applesauce smooth and remove the
skins. If I have organic apples, I leave the skin on and we think it tastes
delicious this way!
2 Add the liquid (apple juice, apple cider, or water), cinnamon, and lemon juice
to the Instant Pot. Put the lid on, lock it, and turn the valve to sealing.
3 Press the manual button and cook at high pressure for 4 minutes.
4 After the cooking time is up, do a natural release.
5 Open the lid and stir. Use an immersion blender to blend the applesauce into a
smooth texture. (If your apples are already extremely soft, you may not need the
immersion blender.)
6 For storage, ladle the completed applesauce into canning jars. I use a quart jar
and a pint jar. You could also use several pint jars if you prefer. Store in the
refrigerator. They'll stay good for a week or two. For longer storage you can
freeze in freezer jars or bags for up to 6 months.
7 Optional: run the completed applesauce through a food mill if you left the skin
on and you want to remove it.
