Homemade Apple Sauce

With an abundance of apples in the house and after innumerable batches of Apple Pies and Apple Crumbles finally decided to freeze the apples in the form of sauce so that it can be used later when apples are not in season. Apple Sauce in my household gets used in the form of cakes or in tarts, a tasty accompaniment with meat dishes or just like that in a bowl with a dollop of Icecream or fresh cream. Apple sauce can be stored in airtight containers in the fridge for 7-8 days and in the freezer for nearly 2 months. Apple cider or Apple juice in the recipe gives a stronger apple flavour to the sauce but it’s optional. Once stored the apple sauce has a tendency to settle down with a layer of liquid on top. It just needs a stir before using it.
