Applesauce makes a wonderful accompaniment to potato latkas, or is a simple, delicious dessert on its own. My Baba Masha always added a ripe pear. Her applesauce was the best!
8 medium apples
1 Bartlett pear (optional)
1/4 cup water or apple juice
3–4 tablespoons sugar (or equivalent sweetener)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Peel and core the apples and pear. Cut them into chunks. Combine all ingredients (except artificial sweetener, if using) in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to simmer and cook partially covered for 20 to 25 minutes, until tender.
To microwave: Cook covered on high power for six to eight minutes, or until tender. Stir once or twice during cooking.
Break up applesauce with a spoon, or serve it chunky.
