We make blanks from apples for the winter - the best tips and recipes for you! Apples in syrup: simple and delicious recipes for canned fruits.

Step by step recipe with photo and video

Made according to this recipe, applesauce is fragrant and tender and has a pleasant, natural sweetness with subtle notes of spices and caramel.

This preparation is universal. Sugar-free apple puree can be used both as a filling for baking, and as an addition to drinks, and, first of all, as a healthy, light, dietary and very tasty independent dessert. Try it!

To prepare sugar-free applesauce for the winter, prepare the ingredients according to the list. Choose apples for harvesting sugar-free puree with sourness, rather sour than sweet, crispy and juicy - puree made from such apples will turn out to be the brightest in taste and less demanding on storage conditions.

Rinse the apples and remove the stalks and seed pods. After cutting the apples, immediately proceed to their heat treatment (so they do not have time to darken) or soak in cold water with the addition of a small amount of lemon juice or citric acid.

Cut the apples into quarters and bake in the oven at 180 degrees until soft (about 30-40 minutes).

Or cut into large pieces, add a little water (a little more than a quarter or half a glass), bring to a boil and simmer over low heat for 10-20 minutes, until soft.

Check the readiness of the apples by piercing the pieces with a fork. If the fork goes in easily and the pieces are soft, it's done.

I like to combine both options for processing apples. Stewed apples make an airy, juicy puree, and the addition of baked apples adds light caramel notes to the taste.

Grind the prepared apples to a puree state. You can use a blender for this purpose, and to get an even smoother texture, rub the apples through a sieve.

If desired, add spices to taste in the finished puree. I add some ground cinnamon.

Place the puree back into the saucepan. Bring the sugar-free apple puree to a boil, stirring constantly.

Pour hot applesauce into jars. Wash the jars thoroughly in advance with soda and sterilize in any convenient way (steamed, in the oven or microwave).

Cover jars with lids and place in a pot of warm water. Bring the water to a boil and sterilize the jars for 20 minutes in boiling water.

Then cover the jars with mashed potatoes with boiled lids, roll up and wrap until completely cool.

Applesauce without sugar for the winter is ready. Have a delicious winter!

It is best to store apples in winter, of course, in a natural, not processed form. If all the rules are followed, all the vitamins will remain in the apples, and eating a fresh apple from your own garden in winter is much more pleasant than buying products from Chinese and Turkish farmers in the store. It is easier for owners of huge cellars to prepare apples for the winter - they prepared a place for storage, laid the harvest, and crunch with juicy apples until spring. But there is a way out for residents of high-rise buildings: special chests are issued for them, which are installed on the balcony. They maintain a temperature of 3-5 degrees, ideal for preserving apples (and not only them). A few tips for preserving apples for both:

We prepare a storage place (meaning a cellar or basement) in advance: we whiten the walls with a solution of freshly slaked lime (1.5 kg per 10 liters of water), 100-200 g of copper sulfate can be added to the solution. The floor in the cellar must be treated with a 5% solution of iron sulfate.
. Harvested apples do not need to be washed - wax coating protects against diseases and rot.
. Before storing, we sort the fruits: apples should not be broken, damaged, only clean and healthy fruits are suitable for storage.
. After picking, it is advisable to immediately cool the apples (in the basement or in the refrigerator).
. Apples can be placed in any container: wooden or cardboard boxes, baskets, in plastic bags or simply placed on racks.
. The fruits must be laid with the stalks up.
. If you wish, you can wrap each apple in paper or sprinkle with well-dried oak or maple leaves.
. The temperature in the basement or cellar should not exceed 5ºС, but in general the ideal temperature for the best preservation of the crop is 0-3ºС

And what about those who do not have a cellar or a special chest? Preserve! Fortunately, there are a lot of recipes for preserving apples for the winter. This, for example, countless jam recipes. The best of them - from the simplest to the most interesting - our site has prepared for you.
