Description

Chunks of sweet, fresh apples (any kind you have on hand), plump juicy raisins, a little cinnamon and sugar, and that’s it. You don’t have to peel the apples and you cook the whole thing in the microwave.

This really could not be easier. Or tastier.

Ingredients

  • 6 whole Large Apples, Any Variety, Sliced 1/4-inch Thick
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon Or More To Taste
  • 1 Tablespoon Sugar (or More To Taste)
  • ½ cups Raisins
  • 6 Tablespoons Water, Or More If Necessary

Preparation

Note: The amounts of sugar and water needed will vary depending on the variety of apple you use. Adjust amounts to your taste.

Place apple slices in a large, microwave-safe dish. (I like to use my large CorningWare casserole dish.)

Sprinkle cinnamon and sugar over the apples.

Sprinkle the raisins over the top of the apples, then add the water.

Cover the dish with plastic wrap (or a lid if you have one) and microwave for 4 minutes. Stir the apples and continue cooking for 4 to 6 minutes, or until the apples are soft. If the apples seem a little dry when you stir them, add another tablespoon or two of water. (Cooking times may vary slightly depending on the wattage of your microwave.)

Using a potato masher (or the back of a spoon), smoosh the apples until they are to your liking. Smoosh them a little for a super chunky applesauce; smoosh them a lot for a smoother sauce.

Serve warm, room temperature, or cold.

Leftovers will keep in the refrigerator for several days.
