This is a really easy recipe 80/10/10 style recipe that you can use as a quick breakfast, a snack, replacement for cooked applesauce in baking or a raw dessert. If you have a few bruised apples laying around, it also takes care of those too!
Raw vegan apple sauce is also very kid friendly for a quick meal. I use ceylon cinnamon in this applesauce recipe. It is OUT OF THIS WORLD! You can check it out here at our store. It doesn’t have a dry bitter flavour like the regular hard cinnamon sticks you find at the grocery store. Ceylon cinnamon is made from a different cinnamon tree and actually tastes like sweet cinnamon, almost a mix between powdered sugar and cinnamon. It’s sugar free of course and tastes great for many different dessert toppings.
Fat Free Raw Vegan Blender Applesauce
Serves 1 or 2
Ingredients:
3 medium apples, peeled and cored
1 banana fresh or frozen
1 date, pitted
1/2 cup water
1 tsp ceylon cinnamon (this is the true sweet cinnamon you can get it here at our store)
dash of allspice
Directions:
1. Place apples, water, banana, cinnamon and allspice in a Vitamix (or food processor) and push down using the tamper, and blend until creamy. Using a frozen banana will give you a nice cool applesauce.
2. Garnish with sliced or chopped apple, raisins, shredded coconut or additional cinnamon.
3. Serve immediately, or refrigerate for later.
Makes 3 cups
Additional Tips:
I use this when I also need some applesauce for baking, and just omit the date and cinnamon if it would affect the recipe. It’s a great way to use up some extra apples and banana when you don’t want them to go to waste!
I just made this. Absolutely delicious!!!!
4. I am having such fun looking up recipes! So many to make, so little time! This is a great little gem and so quick. I have made raw apple sauce several times but never thought to put a banana in it! Brilliant!
I made this the other day and could not believe how scrumptious it was! As if it had been shop-bought, only a hundred times better-tasting than that. I used ordinary cinnamon, but will now endeavour to get ceylon. Thanks for all the tips!
We are selling ceylon cinnamon in our new store Ceylon Cinnamon – RawVegan Store
Hi Veronica,
I’m always looking out for raw recipes to give my kids and I think they will like this one. We already do green smoothies every morning and this will be great to add as something sweet.
Thanks for sharing.
