Organic Apple Puree

Organic apple puree is made from apples grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. The apples are typically washed, cored, and then cooked and blended into a smooth puree. The 'organic' designation means it meets specific standards for agricultural production and processing.

Manufacturers use organic apple puree primarily as a natural sweetener and source of moisture in foods. It also contributes flavor and texture. It is commonly found in baby foods, wholesome snacks, yogurt, baked goods, and sauces.

Organic apple puree is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of natural sugars, fiber, and vitamins. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated similar fruit-based ingredients. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical consumption levels.
