Don’t you hate it when you wake up in the middle of the night, can’t fall back asleep, and find yourself downstairs watching old Andre the Giant videos on YouTube as you contemplate whether 2:30am is too early in the morning to call your brother and reminisce about your favorite childhood wrestler? No? Just me? Well, you’re no fun.
What does that have to do with my Homemade Strawberry Applesauce recipe? Nothing. Stop being so nosy.
We went apple picking this past weekend and I ended up with twenty pounds of apples begging to be turned into applesauce. I specifically saved my garden’s strawberry harvest this summer in preparation of this event because I wanted to up my applesauce game this year. Plain ol’ applesauce is good, but strawberry applesauce is better!
Strawberry applesauce is no harder to make than traditional applesauce. You simply cook everything down till softened and then run it through a food mill to remove the apple skins and create an even consistency. If you don’t have a food mill, pick one up, they are indispensable when needed. I own the and would happily recommend it to anyone.

If you enjoyed reading my Homemade Strawberry Applesauce recipe then you should probably and too. That’s what I would do at least, because if you don’t get to know me but you still use my recipe it is kind of like taking candy from a stranger, and your mom taught you not to do that.
