It’s unbelievable to me sometimes how many different recipes you can make with an instant pot. When I first bought mine, I thought it would just be handy for making soups and stews. Little did I know how many other options would be available to me. A great example of that is this recipe for making a homemade instant pot applesauce. It’s made with two different kinds of apples (Honeycrisp and Granny Smith) and of course cinnamon and a bit of lemon juice. The beauty of this recipe is that unlike many store bought brands of applesauce, this one has no added sugars or preservatives whatsoever.
