Pear Apple Sauce

The pear apple sauce recipe is one of the pear recipes we make a lot.

Not only is it a healthy snack for babies and little kids, but adults love it, too!

It tastes great on pancakes, french toast, or served with chicken - or on a slice of whole grain toasted bread.

What you need:

• 3 McIntosh apples, peeled, cored and chopped
• 3 pears, peeled, cored and chopped
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 1/4 cup frozen apple juice puree, thawed
• 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/8 tsp ground nutmeg

What you do:

• Put all of the ingredients into a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat.
• Reduce heat to a simmer and cover, stirring occasionally.
• The mixture should be reduced to a chunky sauce after 10 minutes or so.
• Remove from heat. Cool. Refrigerate until needed.
• This sauce may also be frozen. Use ice cube trays if you would like to remove one portion at a time.

Makes 2 cups.
