I see ‘applesauce’ called for in a lot for US recipes.

Is this the same apple sauce that we use on our roast pork!? Or is in something entirely different 🙈

    It's the same thing, it is just a way to sweeten recipes.

    Thank you! Didn’t want to add it and end up with something bizarre!

    Applesauce is just apples. If you make it fresh some people add sugar. Usually when I make it I use sweeter apples, I add cinnamon, maybe a little nutmeg. It is simple, crushed apples cooked down.

    It can vary a bit, but it's just crushed cooked down apples with sugar and maybe some nutmeg or cinnamon. Home made tends to be chunky and store bought tends to be more of a puree.
