Pecan Free Instant Pot Applesauce

Homemade applesauce is one of those simple pleasures that store-bought versions never quite nail, and the Instant Pot makes it almost embarrassingly easy. Tender, cinnamon-scented apples come together in just a few minutes of active work, and the pressure cooker does all the heavy lifting from there. Every ingredient in this recipe is naturally tree-nut-free, so there's no label-reading anxiety or worry about shared processing lines — just clean, wholesome fruit. You can go chunky with a potato masher or silky smooth with an immersion blender, depending on your mood or who you're feeding. A touch of lemon juice brightens the whole thing, and the optional nutmeg adds a subtle warmth that makes it taste like something your grandmother would have spent all afternoon making. It's equally at home spooned over oatmeal, served alongside pork chops, or eaten straight from the jar with a spoon — no judgment here.
