TOTAL TIME
1
Wash and dry 12 large Honey Crisp or Fuji apples.
2
Place the pressure cooker on a flat counter or surface.
3
Peel the apples if desired and quarter them, removing the core. Place the apple chunks in the pressure cooker.
4
Add the remaining ingredients to the apples: 2 tbsp grass-fed butter or ghee, 1 tbsp ground cinnamon, 1 tbsp raw honey, juice of 1 organic lemon, 1/4 tsp sea salt (optional), and 3/4 cup filtered water.
5
Secure the lid on the pressure cooker and ensure the steam release valve is sealed.
6
Set the pressure cooker to 'Manual' or 'Pressure Cook', normal/high for 5 minutes.
7
After the cooking time is up, allow the pressure cooker to naturally decompress for about 15 minutes.
8
After decompression, turn the vent to remove any excess steam if necessary, and carefully open the pressure cooker lid.
9
Transfer the cooked apples to a blender or food processor, add leftover liquid but not too much to prevent making the applesauce soupy. Blend or process until smooth.
10
Alternatively, use an immersion hand-held blender, first removing some of the liquid before puréeing the applesauce mixture.
11
Serve the applesauce warm or chilled and enjoy!
