Equipment

Ingredients

  • 7 apples I used a mixture of Granny Smith and Pink Lady
  • ⅔ cup apple juice or apple cider
  • 1 cup pumpkin purée do NOT use pumpkin pie filling
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 Tablespoon pumpkin pie spice

Instructions

  • Wash, peel and core apples. Cut into chunks. 
  • Place apples in the bottom of the instant pot.
  • Add in apple juice, pumpkin puree, salt and pumpkin pie spice.
    Stir gently. 
  • Place the lid on the instapot and seal it. Set to high pressure for 5 minutes.
  • Allow pressure to naturally release for 5 minutes, then release the remainder of the pressure manually. 
  • If you want a bit chunkier applesauce, mash the hot apples with a potato masher. If you prefer a smoother applesauce, use an emulsion blender. 
  • Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
