This baked applesauce was the side that was included with your breakfast sandwich or wrap at my restaurant.

I have used fresh apples as well as frozen. The frozen option is great for cutting and saving excess apples or apple slices my kids don’t finish eating.

After I mashed them here I did put back in the oven for a little bit to get the results below, but it is not necessary. I just wanted a bit of a more caramelized baked applesauce for this particular batch.

I saved the peels and used them to make an apple syrup that was super yummy as well.
