How to Make Pear Applesauce

1. Boil it: Add the apples, pears, cinnamon, nutmeg, sugar, and water to a pot. Stir to combine. Cover and simmer over medium heat for 20 to 25 minutes or until the apples are soft. Remove from the heat.
   
2. Blend it: Using an immersion blender or potato masher, blend the mixture until smooth.
   
3. Store it: Use immediately or refrigerate until ready to use.

Storing and Freezing Instructions

To Freeze: Allow the applesauce to cool completely to room temperature. Spoon the applesauce into ice cube trays and freeze until solid. Pop the cubes out of the trays and transfer them to freezer bags labeled with the date and the contents.

To Store: Pear applesauce can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to a week. Just make sure to check for mold every time you open the jar or container and give it a sniff to check that it still smells delicious.
