Pattis Raspberry Applesauce Recipes

RASPBERRY APPLESAUCE

Steps:

• Add apples and apple juice to a large Dutch oven or other heavy pot and bring to a boil. Cover, turn down the heat to a simmer, and cook until the apples are falling apart tender, about 30-40 minutes.
• Stir in raspberries, remove from stove and cool for about a half hour or so.
• If you have peeled and cored the apples, pour the apple raspberry mixture into a blender and process until smooth (you may have to do this in batches). If you have a food mill (see note below) you can scoop the apple raspberry mixture from the pot to the food mill and turn the handle - the mill will catch all the peel and seeds for you.
• This makes a nice tart applesauce. If you like yours sweeter, add some sugar or honey.
• This applesauce is scrumptious at any temperature - cool, room temperature or warm. I highly recommend trying some while it is warm! I like to garnish with a little mint when serving.

RASPBERRY ROASTED APPLESAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the zest and juice of the oranges and lemon in a large (11-inch) ovenproof pot or Dutch oven, such as Le Creuset. Peel, quarter, and core the apples and add them to the pot, tossing them with the juices as you go.
• Add the brown sugar, butter, cinnamon, and raspberries, cover, and bake for 1 to 1 1/4 hours, until the apples are very soft. Stir vigorously with a wire whisk. The applesauce will be smooth but still have a lot of texture. Serve warm with a scoop of ice cream and a dusting of orange zest.

RASPBERRY APPLESAUCE WITH CHIA

Steps:

• Heat apples, 1/2 cup water, and cinnamon in a medium pot over medium-high. Bring to a simmer, then cover, reduce heat to low, and cook until apples are tender, 25 to 30 minutes. Add raspberries; cook, stirring, until juicy, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; sprinkle with chia seeds. Let cool slightly, then mash. (If too thick, add water, 1 tablespoon at a time.) Applesauce can be refrigerated in an airtight container up to 2 weeks.

• Combine oats, brown sugar, and butter together in a bowl using a pastry blender; add flour. Continue cutting into mixture using pastry blender until crumbly. Spread half the crumb topping into the bottom of the prepared baking pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until crust is lightly browned, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven and cool.
• Spread the raspberry filling onto the cooled crust and sprinkle with remaining crumb topping.
• Bake in the preheated oven until topping is lightly browned, about 20 more minutes.
