Cook the fruit unpeeled to add flavor and a pink hue to this perfectly spiced pear applesauce. Then pass through a sieve to remove the peels. If you have a food mill, use it instead of a sieve. Or cool the fruit slightly, remove and discard the peels, and pulse in a food processor. Refrigerate for up to 5 days.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup apple juice
2 pounds fuji apples, cored and cut into wedges
2 pounds red bartlett pears, cored and cut into wedges
2 (3-inch) cinnamon sticks
1/2 lemon, cut into 2 pieces
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
Directions:
1. Combine first 5 ingredients in a large saucepan; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 45 minutes or until the fruit is tender. Discard cinnamon sticks and lemon. Press fruit mixture through a sieve over a bowl using the back of a spoon, and discard skins. Stir in brown sugar. Serve sauce at room temperature or chilled.
