Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Apples (sweet varieties such as Fuji or Gala)
- 4 medium Pears (Bartlett or Anjou)
- 1 inch piece, grated Fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
Instructions
Wash, peel, core, and chop the apples and pears into roughly 1-inch chunks.
Place the chopped apples and pears into the crock pot.
Add the grated ginger, lemon juice, ground cinnamon, and water to the crock pot. Stir to combine.
If you prefer a sweeter sauce, stir in the honey or maple syrup at this stage.
Cover the crock pot with its lid and cook on LOW for 4-5 hours or until the fruit is very soft and easily mashed.
Once cooked, use an immersion blender for a smooth sauce or a potato masher for a chunkier texture. Blend or mash to your desired consistency.
Allow the sauce to cool slightly before serving. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or freeze for longer storage.
