Organic Applesauce

Applesauce is a puree made from cooked apples. It is typically made by simmering peeled, cored, and sliced apples until soft, then mashing or blending them. Organic applesauce is made from apples grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers.

Applesauce is often used as a sweetener and moisture enhancer in baked goods like muffins, cakes, and breads. It can also serve as a fat substitute in some recipes, adding moisture and a tender texture. It is also commonly found as a standalone food product or a condiment.

Applesauce is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of dietary fiber and vitamin C. JECFA has evaluated applesauce and determined it poses no safety concerns. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming applesauce in typical amounts.
