So good - storebought applesauce doesn't even come close. And it's so easy. This is a good sauce for winter (serve it hot over my slow cooker applesauce cake, also posted). You can use any firm, ripe pear, like Bosc, Winter Nellis, or Anjou. Read more It pairs best with tart apples like Granny Smith. See less
