Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Plain Greek yogurt
- 4 medium Apples
- 1 cup Water
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Peel, core, and dice the apples into small pieces.
In a medium saucepan, combine the diced apples, water, ground cinnamon, and lemon juice.
Bring the apple mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered for about 15-20 minutes until the apples are soft.
Once the apples are tender, remove the saucepan from the heat and let it cool slightly.
Use a blender or food processor to puree the apple mixture until smooth. Alternatively, mash the apples with a fork for a chunkier sauce.
Stir in the vanilla extract into the pureed applesauce.
Allow the applesauce to cool completely before serving.
To serve, divide the Greek yogurt evenly among 4 bowls.
Top each serving of yogurt with a generous spoonful of the homemade applesauce.
Optionally, sprinkle a small pinch of extra cinnamon on top for added flavor.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 3 days.
