Roasted Applesauce
- 4 1/2 lbs. apples
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup maples syrup
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1. Peel the apples and chop them into quarters. Cut out and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 1-inch size pieces and toss in a bowl with the lemon juice.
- 2. Place a thick-bottomed skillet over medium heat and place the butter in it and melt. The butter will foam but it will subside. When the butter smells nutty and takes on a light tan color remove it from heat immediately and place the butter in a cold glass container to stop the cooking process.
- 3. preheat oven to 425F. In a large pan toss together the apples, butter, honey, maple syrup, salt, and cinnamon. Bake for 30 minutes, tossing the apples every 10 minutes to ensure even cooking.
- 4. Using a fork or potato masher mash the apples. Serve hot/warm/cold or store in the fridge for up to two weeks for later use.
