I loved applesauce when I was a kid. Even as an adult, I like having it for a snack. It’s also great in recipes like muffins or desserts instead of sugar.

Now that my little guy is 9 months old and showing more interest in solid foods, I’ve been trying to have regular meal times with him and letting him try different foods.

I’ve made homemade applesauce before, so I knew how easy and healthy it is to make it myself.

How to Add Other Fruits to Homemade Apple Sauce

In addition to fresh apples, I also added pears to this sauce. It adds just a hint of pear flavor along with some extra nutrients. But the texture stays the same!

You can add other fruits such as strawberries, blueberries or peaches to homemade apple sauce, too.

How to Blend Homemade Pear & Apple Sauce

One of my favorite kitchen tools is my immersion blender. This handy little tool can be used in a number of ways for making all sorts of recipes.

I used it to blend up this sauce in seconds! I didn’t even have to put it in a different bowl. Just use the immersion blender to blend up the apples and pears after cooking. If you don’t have an immersion blender, you could use a hand mixer or throw everything in a blender.

Once you finish making the Pear and Apple Sauce and let it cool, store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 weeks. I found that the big mason jars work great for storing!

How to Use Your Pear & Apple Sauce

This pear and apple sauce is great as a snack or side dish. You can also use it in recipes! I like to add apple sauce in baked goods as a sweetener instead of using refined sugar.

Here are a few recipes from my site that use apple sauce as a sweetener: Apple Oat Blender Waffles, One Bowl Applesauce Muffins and Apple Oatmeal Muffins.
