    Wow, this was so easy and so tasty. I did it with the kids, I left out the liquor, but maybe next time.

    Good...but...

    Rated: 4 stars out of 5
    Tasty - but I agree - you couldn't taste the liquor (no kids in my household) - and I used bourbon as one reviewer suggested... (had it). I also had to microwave for an additional 2 minutes as I felt it was a little "soupy." No prob - or just cut down the apple cider next time. Before I put it in for the extra 2 minutes (and had done the initial tasting) - I added an extra tablespoon of bourbon (next time I'll make it 1/2 tablespoon - but it was very still very tasty this way) both orange and lemon zest...and oh by the way, I added dried cranberries from the very beginning to give it color. What is especially appealing about this recipe is the short amount of time it took to cook - and you come out with home made apple sauce. Nice.....oh...and (although I love you, Ina) - when looking at Ina's recipe with 1/2 cup packed brown sugar...I thought Alton's was more appealing. It's sweet enough as it is. Read more

    Very easy and delicious!

    I will never again buy apple sauce. This recipe was so easy to make and it is wonderful. I tried it with different types of... apples and each time it was great. The hubs said it was the best apple sauce he has ever eaten and I have to agree with him. This recipe is a keeper.Read more

    Perfect, Quick Applesauce

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I love this recipe! The original recipe is great as written, but it's remarkably versatile as well (so it works with whatever... you happen to have in your pantry). I've had success using different types of fruit juice & different types of alcohol. My favorite variation is to use palm sugar in place of honey and replace about 3 tbs of the apple cider with lemon juice. Read more

    OMG PONIES!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    This is really easy and delicious. It's insane to buy apple sauce at the store when you know how to do this. I used bourbon... in mine to switch it up and it was excellent. If you do not make this recipe I may be forced to hump your mom. Read more

    like others, I have changed this up a couple of different ways, and it is always fantastic. This time I eliminated the... alcohol and used pomegranite juice because I had no apple juice. really fantastic!Read more
