If you own a Ninja Foodi you have to try making applesauce in it. Fall is approaching fast and soon it will be full swing Apple season! This Ninja Foodi Applesauce is sweet, tart, and downright delicious! 

Ninja Foodi Applesauce

I wanted to try to create a super easy Ninja Food Applesauce recipe for you all to try. A great beginners recipe if you will. Minimal steps and preps. 

 

Ninja Foodi Applesauce 

The Ninja Foodi is on of the newer gadgets on the line. It is an Air Fryer and Instant Pot In one. So you can pressure cook food and then air fry for a crispy texture. Or use just the pressure cooker or air fryer. 

 

How does this work? Well it comes with two lids. A simple switch of lids allows you to change up how it cooks. It has been incredible for me! 

 

Is Making Homemade Applesauce Hard

Making homemade applesauce is really rather easy that’s to the Foodi. No watching and stirring as it breaks down and cooks on the stove. You can easily set and forget and let the Ninja Foodi do its thing.

Which Lid Will You Use For Applesauce 

You will use the pressure cooker lid. This is going to act like the Instant Pot and really pressurize and break down the apples until very tender.

 

Creative Ways to Serve Applesauce 

  • Scoop of ice cream with warm applesauce
  • Spread on toast, croissants, bagels
  • Pair with yogurt
  • Top Oatmeal or Cream of Wheat with it

 

There is no wrong way to enjoy this tasty homemade applesauce. 

 

Meal Prep With Homemade Applesauce 

You can meal prep your lunches with your applesauce. When I go to store this I place the applesauce in small single-serve containers so all I do is grab and toss in lunchbox. 

 

If I do this we for sure eat all the applesauce, and as a busy mom it saves me so much time. It’s ready to go and I just grab and toss in.

How Long Will Ninja Foodi Applesauce Store

You can store applesauce in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 7-10 days. Use your best judgement in terms of when you feel it is bad and needs to be tossed. Every refrigerator cools slightly different so go with your instinct. 

 

Can Applesauce Be Frozen 

Yes you can freeze applesauce. If you want to make a large batch and freeze some go for it. Just place in freezer friendly container and leave room for it to expand slightly at top. 

 

Then toss in the freezer for up to three months. When ready to eat, that in the fridge the night before. 

 

Best Way To Reheat Homemade Applesauce

Some people love the taste of warm applesauce, and I am included in this! I have found a quick Reheat in the microwave works when in a hurry. Or opt for stovetop. Place some applesauce in pan and warm it up on a low heat setting. Stir often so it doesn’t burn. Once it is warm serve and enjoy!
