Plum Apple Sauce

This Plum Apple Sauce has the ability to elevate any meal. Many people have reservations about apple sauce because of its sweetness, often due to store-bought versions loaded with added sugars and chemicals. This recipe uses only natural ingredients, so it might just become your condiment of choice.

Plum Apple Sauce is naturally sweet and sour. Its flavor is enhanced by apple cider vinegar and dark brown (demerara) sugar. Note: When plums dry, they become prunes, and prune juice acts as a natural laxative – use it sparingly unless needed for digestive relief.

This sauce shines when made with in-season plums and apples. The freshness and richness of seasonal fruit, balanced by the tang of apple cider vinegar and soy sauce, creates a well-rounded flavor. If you prefer a touch of heat, a dash of chili and cinnamon can be added.

The preparation is straightforward, and the sauce keeps well in a tightly sealed jar in the refrigerator. Enjoy!
