This delicious, homemade, instant pot applesauce with cinnamon and honey is one of the easiest things to cook and is ready in just 20 minutes!
Cut the apples into even-sized chunks. You don't have to peel the apples to get a smooth applesauce, especially after pressure-cooking, so I'd recommend leaving the peels on for added nutrition. Place the apple pieces into the pressure cooker / instant pot, then sprinkle in the cinnamon and salt.
Pour in the honey (if using) and then the water. Give the ingredients a good stir until well combined.
Place the lid on the pressure cooker and set the pressure cooker valve to Sealing then press Pressure Cook, High and for 5 minutes.
Once the cooking time has completed allow to sit for 5 minutes then turn valve to Venting to do a quick release and allow all of the pressure to release.
Carefully open the lid away from your face. Use a potato masher to mash the applesauce to your desired consistency. For a smoother consistency, use an immersion blender to blend until completely smooth.
Serve warm or allow to cool in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
