Chef's Notes


I enjoy the tart flavor of Cortland apples, however other varieties such as Gala, McIntosh or Golden Delicious apples would work well.
Substitute strawberries for the apples when they are in season.
Vary the flavoring ingredients: increase the amount of cinnamon; add vanilla, maple syrup or even ginger.
If you prefer a sweeter rhubarb applesauce increase amount of sugar to ½ cup.
Purée with a hand held mixer of blender if you prefer a smooth consistency.
Keep refrigerated for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 1 year.
