What it is

Apple paste is made from cooked apples that have been pureed. It is often produced by cooking whole apples, removing the core and skin, and then pureeing the remaining fruit. It can be used as a base for sauces, baked goods, or as a natural sweetener.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add apple paste to provide sweetness, moisture, and apple flavor to foods. It is commonly found in baked goods like muffins and cookies, as well as in snack bars, sauces, and baby food.

Health notes

Apple paste is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of natural sugars and fiber from the apples. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated many fruit-based ingredients, but specific evaluations for apple paste are not widely published. At typical consumption levels, it is not associated with adverse health effects.

Allergen info

Apple paste is not derived from any of the 9 major FDA allergens. It does not contain gluten.
