- 4 lbs apples (see *; peeled, cored & sliced)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- ¾ cup water (see **)
Peel + core apples. Cut into 1 inch pieces and place in the insert of a 6 or 8 quart Instant Pot with the vanilla, cinnamon and water.
Place the lid on the Instant Pot, set the valve to 'sealing', and pressure cook on high for 5 minutes.
Allow the pot to naturally depressurize (this takes around 35 minutes).
Using an immersion blender, blend until smooth.
* you can use any apples in this recipe, I prefer a mix of varieties and used 2 lbs of ambrosia and 2 lbs of granny smith for this recipe
** use up to 2 cups of water to make the sauce thinner
