I make my own applesauce & never put sugar in it. I try to blend sweeter apples with tart to get a balanced flavor. I then use the applesauce for half of the sugar in recipes. I often use honey where I can. I love to use overripe bananas because they are sweeter & the sugar can be reduced without noticing. I've been making no-churn nice cream with the bananas, frozen, cocoa powder, no sugar, and organic natural peanut butter. Blend in a food processor quickly so as not to soften it too much and you have healthy, naturally sweet, protein packed soft serve. It's really good. Nice cream recipe: 3 overripe bananas, cut and lay flat on baking sheet, freeze solid. 1/3 cup cocoa powder, like Hershey''s Dutch processed. 3 heaping tablespoons of peanut butter, divided 2T goes into food processor. 1T to swirl through after nice cream is out of mixer. Enjoy I've been experimenting with bananas, protein powder, Greek yogurt & vanilla extract. OR bananas, coconut milk, coconut extract & honey.
