30 servings
- •1 lemon
- •1 cinnamon stick
- •1 (1/4 inch thick) slice fresh ginger
- •1 star anise pod
- •2 whole cloves
- •1 piece cheesecloth
- •3 pounds apples - peeled, cored, and quartered
- •½ cup water
- •½ teaspoon salt
- •2 tablespoons brown sugar, or more to taste
Instructions
- Use a vegetable peeler to remove 2 thick strips of lemon peel, being careful to avoid the bitter pith. Tie up lemon peel, cinnamon stick, ginger, star anise, and cloves in cheesecloth for easy retrieval after cooking.
- Place apples in a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Add cheesecloth bundle, water, and salt. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 5 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
- Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 15 to 20 minutes. Avoid releasing pressure manually as hot applesauce may splutter up through the vent. Remove the cheesecloth bundle with a slotted spoon and discard.
- Mix brown sugar into the applesauce until dissolved. Taste and adjust the level of sweetness if needed.
