Applesauce is a gently spiced, sweet-tart mash of tender apples simmered with cinnamon and cloves for cozy, nostalgic flavor. It tastes bright and fruity with warm spice notes, perfect warm by the spoonful or chilled alongside pork, pancakes, or as a snack. Serve it fresh or stash it for a few days to enjoy anytime.
