Notes
To save applesauce and make it last longer, you can follow these steps:In the fridge: Once the applesauce has cooled and is at room temperature, you can transfer it to glass or plastic containers with tight-fitting lids. Applesauce usually keeps well in the refrigerator for up to a week.Freezer: If you want to keep it for a longer period, you can freeze it. Divide the puree into appropriate portions (for example, if you regularly use 1/4 cup as an egg replacer, you could freeze in portions of that amount). You can use freezer-safe containers or freezer bags. Be sure to leave some room in the container, as the applesauce will expand when frozen. Once frozen, applesauce can keep up to a year.To Thaw: To use frozen applesauce, you can thaw it in the refrigerator overnight or in the microwave if you need it quickly.Remember to always mark the containers with the date and name to know what is in the freezer.
