Hi Kaley,

Thank you so much for visiting. If you were to can it, I would assume the shelf like would be pretty infinite like most canned goods are. I’ve never tried canning it myself but canned applesauce can definitely last for years. I’ve also never tried freezing it but assume that it would freeze well. You’d probably just need to give it a good mix once it thawed.

Best Wishes,

Hi Dave,

Great question. I would say that you’re safe to have it in the fridge for 5-7 days. My suggestion would be to freeze it in smaller batches to take out as you need it.

You could also can it if you are a canner. 🙂

Thank you for visiting.

Best Wishes,

Great recipe. Just one question, how long do you think the apple sauce will last in the fridge? That’s my only concern as if it only lasts a few days it may not be enough time to get through it all.

Thanks

Hi Judy,

Great question. I’d suggest that you cut the liquid almost in half. So probably 3/4 of a cup to 1 cup. If it’s too liquidy you can just keep it uncovered longer at the end to let the extra juice evaporate. You could probably reduce the cooking time by a couple of hours too. 🙂

Thanks for this answer. I was looking all over the internet to see whether it’s okay to can applesauce without first peeling the apples. I only use organic produce and don’t want to throw away anything I don’t have to!
